In a heartfelt and raw confession, South African rapper Emtee, also known as “The Hustla,” has shared his deep frustrations and disappointment over his current record deal. Taking to social media, the rapper revealed that despite being signed to a new label for the past year, he feels neglected and unsupported by the team.
“I’ve been signed to an empire for approximately 365 days now. I can’t remember one thing that has been done for me by them,” Emtee lamented. He expressed frustration over having to organize his own shows and dealing with people who have allegedly stolen from him, only for them to mock his setbacks. “They laugh and say ‘he lost it all.’ Nah, you stole from me,” he said, addressing those who contributed to his struggles.
The rapper went on to explain how the anticipation for his album has been mounting from his supporters, family, and friends. However, despite their constant inquiries, he feels left in the dark, waiting endlessly for his label to take action. “This has to be the worst moment of my life. I can’t post anything without being asked by millions of supporters about the album,” Emtee shared, highlighting the immense pressure he’s under.
He even reflected on his former label, Ambitiouz Entertainment, which he famously had issues with but now sees in a different light. “Ambitiouz was hell, but they didn’t keep me waiting for a whole year without even giving a f*** about me,” he admitted, comparing his current struggles to his past experiences.
As Emtee continues to navigate this difficult chapter in his career, his candid words have sparked concern among his fans, who have long awaited new music and want to see the artist thrive. His transparency sheds light on the challenges artists often face behind the scenes, even when the public expects success and consistency.
