Ambitiouz Entertainment has tried to justify their petty act

This petty act was purportedly in retaliation for Blaq Diamond allegedly "stealing" one of their early independent singles reports ZAleb.

The record label went on Twitter to "explain" themselves in a tweet captioned:

"Qoma was recorded in 2020 and released as a “NEW” song by Blaq Diamond … We are supposed to just fold our arms and take it because artists are always right? These people are stealing songs we paid for and presenting them as new... If we own a master, we WILL release it."

Music lovers did not buy the record label's explanation

Ambitiouz's justification did not ease tensions among fans who felt the label was exploitative.
