The 31-year-old Isiginci hitmaker from Hammarsdale, outside Durban, said he fell ill soon after releasing his first song under his own record label, BLVCK Bird Entertainment.

Mduduzi dumped Inkabi Records in March 2026 and founded BLVCK Bird Entertainment.

In May 2026, he released Umaqondana and promised fans another song, Amamitha.

But he suddenly went quiet.

Now, Mduduzi says the health scare affected his music plans and activities.

“I got sick after I released the first song under my record label. I’ve been under doctor supervision. The health scare made it impossible for me to release music frequently.

“I’m feeling better now and promise that my fans will be entertained and quality music will be released,” he said.

Mduduzi said even while he was sick, he never regretted leaving Inkabi Records, owned by rapper Big Zulu.

“I left that company because I wanted to start something on my own. When I was sick and couldn’t do anything, I thought about my fans.

“I felt I was somehow disappointing them. But the love I received, from people who tried to reach out, was amazing.

“Not even a single day did I wish I was still with Inkabi Records. I’m independently happy. And my focus now is on music,” said Mduduzi.

His exit from Inkabi Records followed claims that he was allegedly owed over R200 000 in unpaid royalties. \

However, Big Zulu denied owing him money, saying Mduduzi left the label with his blessing.
