Open Mic Productions through their lawyers have given the Limpopo based music star Makhadzi real name Ndivhudzannyi Ralivhona until tomorrow (Friday) afternoon to retract her repeated defamatory and damaging statement she made on her socials that the recording company was making her a slave as well as mistreating her.
“Yesterday I dropped a new song Niazwifha, they removed it sitting on 130 k views, this breaks me more because they don’t want to see me working but being their slave”.
“I have not received a single cent for the projects I have done”, tweeted the Bulawayo born Mozambican singer.
This follows the removal of her song from YouTube only a few hours after it was posted.
However, in response, the production studio posted proof of payments it had done into the musical queen’s account which was almost R 8 million.
Open Mic wrote a letter to the queen and her lawyers demanding an apology and a retraction of what Makhadzi had tweeted.
“Our client demands an apology and retraction of the aforesaid false, harmful and defamatory statements which were published by your client on her Twitter and Instagram accounts”.
Makhadzi is said to have breached the “confidentiality clause” by discussing confidential contractual matters in the public domain without consultation or consent from the production studio.
The studio threatened Makhadzi with legal proceedings if she doesn’t retract her statements by tomorrow afternoon.
