It’s been a while since we heard from Cynthia Morgan, the fiery Nigerian dancehall queen who once ruled the airwaves with hits like German Juice and I’m Taken. But now, she’s back in the spotlight—this time, not for a new release, but for a deeply emotional reason.
An old video of Cynthia—now known as Madrina—recently resurfaced online, and it has stirred emotions across Nigeria’s entertainment scene. In the clip, she opens up about her battle with illness, depression, and the heartbreak of losing her music career due to a fallout with her former label, Northside Entertainment.
Back in 2020, Cynthia made headlines when she revealed how she lost her stage name, royalties, social media accounts, and YouTube channel after leaving the label managed by Jude Okoye, brother to Peter and Paul Okoye of the now-defunct P-Square duo. That revelation led to a wave of public sympathy and even inspired the launch of a GoFundMe campaign titled “Bring Back Cynthia Morgan” to support her comeback.
Fast forward to June 2025—following the reappearance of that heart-wrenching video—the campaign has been relaunched by concerned fans who believe she still deserves a second shot at stardom. The goal? To raise funds that will cover healthcare, therapy, studio sessions, and efforts to reclaim her music and brand.
A Star Who Never Got Her Flowers:
Many fans feel Cynthia was one of the most original voices in Nigerian music—blending dancehall, reggae, and Afrobeat with fierce charisma and bold lyrics. Her sudden disappearance from the scene left many wondering what went wrong.
Now, with mental health awareness growing stronger and artist empowerment being more widely discussed, supporters are using their voices (and wallets) to help her get back on her feet. The #BringBackCynthiaMorgan hashtag has re-emerged on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, with fans sharing memories, music clips, and words of encouragement.
A Story That Needs Telling:
What makes Cynthia’s story especially powerful is that it shines a light on a side of the music industry that’s often hidden—the battles artists fight behind the scenes. From contract disputes to mental health breakdowns, her experience is one that resonates with many.
And while Cynthia has largely stayed out of the limelight in recent years, her fans haven’t forgotten her. In fact, they’re proving that the love is still very real.
This isn’t just about reviving a music career—it’s about giving a woman the chance to heal, rebuild, and rise
