Richie Music Empire has released the official video for “My Way,” reigniting conversation around Qing Madi’s early work under her former Madi Kid alias.
The video premiered Wednesday, May 13, 2026, fulfilling the label’s pledge to roll out pending projects recorded during Qing Madi’s time with the label. The track features Richie Music Empire CEO Don Richie and was produced by Rhaffy.
The release comes against the backdrop of Qing Madi’s quiet exit from the label, which fueled speculation across the industry. She briefly signed with Jtown Records after leaving, but reports later confirmed she had also parted ways with that label, leaving fans watching closely for her next move.
Despite her departure, Richie Music Empire says it intends to keep promoting the music recorded during her contract. The label maintains that all songs and visuals created in that period remain part of its catalogue and will be released as planned. More tracks and videos from the Madi Kid era are expected in the coming months.
Industry watchers describe the rollout as both a business play and a nod to fan demand, given the renewed interest in Qing Madi’s rise and her early collaborations.
The “My Way” video leans into Afro-fusion visuals and storytelling, highlighting the chemistry between Qing Madi and Don Richie. Since its debut, it has picked up traction across streaming platforms and social media, with fans praising the production and visuals.
For many, the focus is on the music itself. With “My Way,” Richie Music Empire has put one of Qing Madi’s most anticipated unreleased records back into the spotlight, adding another layer to the ongoing conversation about artist-label rights in Afrobeats.
