The speculation follows reports that the five-year agreement between the singer and the company has expired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bruce Melodie spoke about his relationship with 1:55 AM during an interview with Radio Rwanda on September 26, 2026, as he promoted his new song, Irya 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat could separate me from my brothers? My affairs with 1:55 AM have often been handled privately. I am not someone who easily lets go of important people. These are people I have lived and worked with, and our relationship reached a point where it became brotherhood, going beyond business,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The singer dismissed suggestions that he had completely cut ties with the company, saying they could continue working together on other ventures even if their music partnership ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI don’t put too much emphasis on contracts. Coach Gael is my brother, and so is Kenny. Contracts take time to conclude; these are not things that happen overnight. Whether we continue together or not, we will still pursue other businesses because there are many things we can work on,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His comments suggest that the five-year agreement has expired and has not yet been renewed, although discussions on a possible renewal have been ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bruce Melodie also commented on recent reports of a disagreement between producer Loader and singer Prince Kiiiz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said such disagreements can sometimes benefit artists, arguing that producers may create better music when they are angry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
