Afrobeats singer, Qing Madi has accused her former record label boss, Joy Tongo, the CEO of JTon Music, of forging her signature and stealing from her.

The ‘American Love’ crooner made the allegation while claiming that her former record label was out to sabotage her career after they brought multiple songs from her new album ‘Barely Legal” down from streaming platform over alleged breach of contract.

Speaking during a recent TikTok livestream, Qing Madi claimed her former record label is cutting through “the corners” to sabotage her after she defeated their $2-million lawsuit in court.

“She [Joy Tongo] stole from me, did a bunch of weird things like forging my signature. She sued me for $2M & she lost the case. She took down ‘Pepper Me’, I worked with my team to prove it’s an illegal takedown. They went through the corners again to take down the project,” the singer lamented.

She called on fans to assist in speaking against the alleged injustice, stressing that she was getting exhausted by the ongoing struggles with her former label.

Meanwhile, Joy Tongo has responded to Qing Madi’s allegations, debunking them as “false claims.”

Tongo denied forging Madi’s signature or stealing from her.

She explained that the case Qing Madi claimed to have won was still ongoing, adding that the injunction is why the record label can issue a legal takedown of her songs or projects.

“Also, the injunction is ruling is why we can issue a legal takedown now, what case have you won? Because last time I checked the case still hasn’t gone to trial,” Tongo added in a post on her Instagram page.
