The gospel singer Ebuka Songs has expressed his reasons for leaving Spotlite Nation before the end of his three-year deal with the record label.
In December 2024, Moses Bliss, the creator of Spotlite Nation, disclosed that Ebuka exited the label after barely 11 months.
Bliss said that Ebuka had made the decision to pursue his music on his own and that there were no problems between them.
“There are no issues between me and Ebuka Songs. He was signed to Spotlite Nation but later said he wants to do things on his own,” Bliss said.
“Our contract didn’t end when it was supposed to end. It was a three-year contract. I think 11 months into it, he said he wants to do his music alone. I prayed about it and I said he can go. We hold no grudge against him.”
In a recent interview on Open Up podcast, Ebuka narrated how he met Bliss in Abuja and was later signed to Spotlite Nation.
He disclosed that he left the music label because of his intention to focus on his own ministry.
“I will always be grateful for the role Moses Bliss played in my life because as at that time, I had the anointing and gift but didn’t know all of these things professionally,” he said.
“So there was a lot that I learned and the platform opened me to a lot of things that I know right now and that are working for me now.
“I’m grateful for the journey that I’ve been through here but at this point now, this is a next level for me to focus on my ministry. And we are on our good space.
“I have a reason why I haven’t said anything since that time. I didn’t want to bring more conversations around that thing, so I just kept quiet about it.
“We all get to the point where we just want to be focused on the next phase of our lives, and because of the assignment of God upon my life.”
