Ntale has been in a huge feud with Swangz Avenue music label, a camp she quit the camp in 2017 after misunderstandings with the bosses.
She later decided to run a solo career appointing her young sister Sandra Ntale as her manager though it has been a hell of a milestone to stay on top as she used to under Swangz Avenue.
It now of no doubt that Ntale’s crippling music career will immediately be revived after her signature under UMG.
Congratulations Irene Ntale!
