INTABA Yase Dubai has started his own recording label called 3.7 Entertainment.
Real name Lindokuhle Msomi, the popular musician recently said that he was only paid R3 700 by Ambitiouz Entertainment for his hit-song Imali Eningi, in which he was featured by Big Zulu.
A source revealed that he was not happy about this, so he decided to leave the company and started out on his own.
“As his friend, I congratulate him for making a wise move. Intaba is a hard worker. I know he will make it.
“He is going to run this company successfully,” said the source.
Intaba made headlines when he said that he was broke and didn’t get a cent from Imali Eningi. Big Zulu then said his payments were made to Ambitiouz Entertainment.

Another source said Intaba was now happy.
“He wishes that he knew better before joining any recording company. He believes he was overwhelmed when he got the deal, and forgot important things. Now he has learnt the hard way and will never get into such a situation again.”
Asked for comment, Ambitiouz Entertainment spokeswoman Thando Galebodiwe said: “Please contact Intaba Yase Dubai.”
But Intaba was not available for comment.
In his recent interview on Podcast and Chill with Mac, he was asked what he would do differently.
“I would be independent. I’d open my own company, as I already did. Its name is 3.7 Entertainment.”
Intaba also released a statement, confirming that he had parted ways with Ambitiouz.
“I will forever be grateful for the opportunity and platform it gave me when no one did. I’m not fighting with anyone or Ambitiouz. I almost gave up on music because I was not paid what I deserve and worked hard for,” read part of the statement.
