"They want to be Daddy Andre, Nina Roz or Angella Katatumba in just one year, which is not possible. It is not about the promotion but music. If people are not well acquitted with your music, you have to sit back and make research as to why,” Ocean added.

Reacting to the ultimatum and accusations leveled against them by the label, UgaBoys alleged that Black Market made them promises but failed to deliver.
The Boys further alleged that they were fired and had no other choice but to look for a way out.
"We have been with them for close to three years and it doesn't take long to make us stars. We did Gimme with Ykee Benda and every investment was ours. We didn't need any permission because we had been fired," UgabBoys told Spark TV.
