Sbahle accuses Blaq Diamond’s Ndumiso Mdletshe of allegedly bullying her.
Ndumiso Mdletshe allegedly removed all of Sbahle’s music from streaming platforms. The young artist, who comes from Umlazi, was signed under Umuthi Records, a record label owned by Blaq Diamond. The record label was founded following their departure from Ambitiouz Entertainment.
Sbahle was the first artist to be signed under Umuthi Records in 2020. She released a string of popular singles entitled, Emlanjeni, Ipiki and Ubani Owayazi, respectively.
In an open letter to Instagram, she wrote about her wishes to become an independent artist as she is tired of being the victim. She further added, “People come to my grandparents’ home, asking for permission to move me to a different province and promise to take care of me, my career and support me all the way. Only for them to abandon me, not knowing what I eat, where I sleep, how I live. Now they are bullying me out of my music and taking it down. How am I supposed to live?”.

According to ZiMoja, the reason why Blaq Diamond removed all her music is because she decided to walk away from her contract.
However, Ndumiso failed to live up to any of his promises. He stopped buying her groceries after a couple of months, and she was left to sort herself out.
Another source close to ZiMoja claims that what made the situation even more painful was Ndumiso’s ill-treatment of her. The ill-treatment was supposedly due to her relationship with Ambitiouz Entertainment, the pop duo’s former record label.
Responding to these accusations, Ndumiso states that Sbahle wasn’t even signed with them for a year, and she was using them to fight her own battles with Ambitiouz Entertainment.
He denies that he said that she was “nothing” and that this was nothing more than an attempt to tarnish his name. He further claims that he has nothing against her and that she’s just someone he used to work with.
