That was difficult, and I don\u2019t think I will let any artist go again by myself. Tega and Rima handle that now if they need somebody to leave the label.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cEverybody on my record label is like my child. So, that was hard for both of us. And she [Di\u2019ja] knew that it was hard for me. She even questioned the guys in the room why they had to involve me in that. All of us started crying.
