Nigerians are Making Sure Cynthia Morgan Gets Back On Her Feet & Into the Music Scene

It’s no news that one of Nigeria’s finest reggae/dancehall female singer, Cynthia Morgan now Madrina, has been off the music radar for a long while now.

Although she’s been on and off the scene quite a couple of times, the last time the singer went MIA, she came back with a bang in 2018, changing her stage name from Cynthia Morgan to ‘Madrina’ as part of her efforts to rebrand.

Sometime in March, the singer had a chat with Sydney Shocker on ‘LunchTime Friday‘. She disclosed that she was down with a terrible illness and had a lot of family issues to deal with. In a new interview, the singer had an Instagram Live chat with her No. 1 advocate of her comeback and former Miss Globe Nig, Sandra Ogbebor (MsVania7).

She opened up on her travail after an issue she had with the CEO of her former record label ‘Northside Records’, Jude Okoye, her VEVO account, royalties, Instagram account and other things due to the contract she signed and the record label issue she had with the music executive.

According to her, she became depressed thereafter and had to relocate to Benin to save cost for treatment of an illness that almost took her life. She was sick for over 6 months. It was never a drug problem, she never did drugs.

On why she didn’t open up at that time, she said she wasn’t ready to talk as she believed it was a phase of life she would surmount. She also admitted that some of the colleagues in the music industry reached out to her, but she didn’t say anything because it was all centred on work which she wasn’t ready to get back to then.

According to Sandra, a GoFundMe account to fund her comeback has been created, and Nigerians have started supporting the music star.

Here’s how Nigerians  and celebrities are reacting to the news:

Joy Tonogo, Cynthia’s (former) manager, shared an official detailed summary statement addressing the accusations made by Cynthia Morgan.

Since this Cynthia Morgan issue is entering my mentions when all I am trying to do is celebrate my birthday and sell my freaking book… I'm going to weigh in based on the tweets I have been seeing in line with the context of my book ?? #JourneyOfALearner

Cynthia Morgan call me ….

— Davido (@davido) May 24, 2020

Tell Cynthia I got an anthem for her …. I’ll record my verse now

— Davido (@davido) May 24, 2020

If I were Cynthia Morgan, I wouldn’t use the new found fame to release a new song. I’d use it to write a book, speak at events, sell CDs, start a podcast etc. There is no guarantee the song will blow & people will move on if it does not. She has a better shot at success this way.

For 99% of artistes, if you don’t evolve from singing to other things, you will regret it. Music is most times a means to an end. Not an end itself. This is a chance for a her to find that end.

Her story has connected with you lot, and now you think it's her music.

No. Before her problems started in the game, her releases were already finding it hard to penetrate. By 'Simatiniya', she was already in a ghost town.

Y'all don't really mean this. Trend her matter and go.

Davido coming through for Cynthia Morgan despite their history. I doubt anyone is surprised by that. He lives “we rise by lifting others” as a matter of fact, irrespective of whatever else. He could blow her all over again. When you are blessed, you are.

But what DOES purposely robbing “Cynthia Morgan of her freaking STAGE NAME!!! “….mean?
This is VILE I mean sheer WICKEDNESS that cannot be overlooked!!!

This Cynthia Morgan gist is painful. I should have guessed right when I saw her pictures recently.

So many people unknowingly enter parasitic relationships and go into slavery in the form of contractual terms.

She'll definitely bounce back.

They will use this GoFundMe to drag Cynthia Morgan if she says pim in the future. I can't trust internet.

Praying for Cynthia Morgan … I love that girl MEHN …. ❤️❤️ God is in the business of restoration & healing ??

Exactly. Many of us don’t listen. Many labels/mgmt don’t know what they are doing. Many don’t have character or humility. Everything then tangles. Fighting it is sometimes worse than just letting it be. See ehn. Dotun.. come and collect hug. https://t.co/RUhaHLdO05

Wish Cynthia Morgan well, hope she's get back on her feet and stronger.
Hopefully there's an entertainment lawyer out there that can help her look into whatever the drama is with her record label. Showbusiness like Life can be cutthroat.#Peace #love #staystrong pic.twitter.com/AgNAc3Gese

Ready to Re-Stan Cynthia Morgan with all my might.

When things were rosy for Cynthia Morgan, a lot of her celebrity frnds would always be seen around her but when things went bad, they forgot abt her& didn't give her a helping hand.This should teach us a lesson about life, she needs all the help she can get,to get her on her feet

Learned about what happened to Cynthia Morgan last night and it touched my heart, she's gone through alot, for someone that used to be on top of her game, now living in the shadow just bcos of record label issues. Bloggers lied to us that she's in US living good.
