Richie Music Empire Unveils Madi Kid(Qing Madi's) Titled "My Way"

The latest visual release from Richie Music Empire has continued to command attention and intensify conversations across the Nigerian music industry since the official premiere of the music video for “My Way,” one of the standout records originally issued under the Madi Kid brand—now formally recognized as Qing Madi.

Premiering on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, the official music video marks yet another deliberate, strategically timed move from the label as it carries forward an earlier commitment to unveil the full set of unreleased and pending projects recorded during Qing Madi’s period with the company under the Madi Kid identity. The track features Don Richie, Chief Executive Officer of Richie Music Empire, while acclaimed producer Rhaffy handled the production.

“My Way” arrives amid sustained industry turbulence surrounding Qing Madi’s unannounced departure from Richie Music Empire—an event that quickly sparked widespread speculation across entertainment circles. Following the reported exit, the singer was said to have briefly aligned with Jtown Records, before subsequent reports indicated she had also parted ways with that label. The developments have left fans closely monitoring her next move and anticipating what direction her career will take.

Despite the uncertainty trailing her exit, Richie Music Empire appears determined to preserve—and maximize—the commercial and cultural value of the artist’s earlier catalogue. Industry observers have described the release strategy as simultaneously shrewdly market-driven and deeply symbolic, particularly in light of the amplified public curiosity surrounding Qing Madi’s artistic growth and the label’s internal history.

Visually, “My Way” delivers a refined convergence of Afro-fusion aesthetics, emotionally grounded storytelling, and contemporary Nigerian sensibilities—reinforcing the creative alignment between Qing Madi and Don Richie on the record. Since its premiere, the project has sustained growing engagement across streaming platforms and social media, with supporters applauding both the visual craftsmanship and the song’s melodic composition.

Sources close to the label further indicate that additional recordings and visual projects developed during Qing Madi’s tenure as Madi Kid remain scheduled for release in the coming months, consistent with Richie Music Empire’s earlier public assurances. The label has repeatedly maintained that all legally recorded and produced works during her contractual period remain part of its active catalogue.

As discourse continues to broaden around artist-label dynamics in Nigeria’s entertainment ecosystem, the release of “My Way” once again highlights the complex realities of ownership, branding, and artistic continuity within modern African music business structures.

For many fans, however, the central focus ultimately remains the music itself—and with “My Way,” Richie Music Empire appears to have delivered one of the most talked-about post-departure releases currently shaping the Afrobeats conversation.
