Ntukza went down memory lane when reflecting on his journey in the music industry.

The rapper recently took to his Instagram stories to  commemorate seven years as a solo artist. 

Ntukza said he had only submitted one of his projects for an award throughout the years but was ready to submit his new work.

"This year marks seven whole years I took a solo musical journey. FOE got shortlisted at the SAMA's as the only project I ever submitted at awards, but my next works shall be submitted for sure. I'm ready.

"It hasn't been easy. I had one large puzzle to figure out all by myself. Through the seven years invested in myself daily with discipline. Today 2023, I'm reaping from my sweat and tears."

While fans have been anticipating a possible reunion with his former group Teargas, Ntukza and his former group members have made it clear he is no longer interested. 

K.O took a jab at the rapper in his Forecast 23 freestyle when addressing questions about Teargas reuniting.

“Uthando noxolo that’s what I’m truly on, Uyinja yami but fede asishayisan’ iminyak’ eyishumi yonke. And every time I’m thinking you’re wiser ntwana you prove me wrong. Asik’phenduli noma ungas’tweet’ uyibhari ekhuluma yodwa and every chance oyithola, uhlala ukhulum’ inyongo. Let the fans hear it from me, f**k a reunion.”

In his response, Ntukza released a diss track titled Long Road To Freedom. The rapper claimed K.O bought the views for his hit single SETE and he was unbothered by his lack of interest in the reunion.

“K.O you're hurt, all you need is hugs. He said 'f**k a reunion'. I was like man when you said it like a way to promote us, I even planned dates. Stunna helped you with a million views but there's nothing in it because you bought the views.”
