How can my 16 years of hard work be taken off the music platforms\u2026 just because I\u2019m not signed under any major label then my work gets erased.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added an emotional apology to fans who support his music, saying he would do everything possible to restore his catalogue.<\/p>\n<p>The tweet quickly gained traction, drawing reactions from fans who speculated about possible industry pressure.<\/p>\n<p>One user suggested that a record label might be trying to force him into a deal, asking if he had been approached to sign.<\/p>\n<p>Chymamusique appeared to confirm this, replying: \u201cYes I received proposals and I kept saying NO, maybe that\u2019s the problem for them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He further expressed disappointment at how the situation unfolded, adding: \u201cThey didn\u2019t wait until I\u2019m gone, they removed the music while I\u2019m still alive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The controversy comes months after the DJ survived a near-fatal accident, making the situation even more emotional for fans who have followed his journey.<\/p>\n<p>Many have since rallied behind him, urging him to fight back and regain control of his work, while raising broader concerns about power dynamics within the music industry.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Just opened my iTunes and your latest album is no longer there \ud83d\udc94 <\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Thapelo (@Deepkid_ZA) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Deepkid_ZA\/status\/2047396920054673706?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">April 23, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 4 -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#Chymamusique #cries #music #vanishes #streaming #platforms<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; Chymamusique\u2019s music removed from all streaming platforms South African DJ and producer Chymamusique has sparked concern after claiming his&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":57059,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-57058","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mzansi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57058","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57058"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57058\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":57060,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57058\/revisions\/57060"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57059"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57058"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57058"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57058"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
