I have never been here before.... I never thought in a million years that I would be. Leroy, @AuthorityNOTA and myself started thing in 2013 based solely on trust.

The plan was to also create a platform for our dreams and for @TLTamazing and @only1makwa to progress.

As success came, through everyone's efforts - Difference of ideas, mismanagement of funds and many other things led to distrust. I'm guilty of some of these things and so are Nota and Leroy.

Leroy handled the finances, Nota was the music executive and I, as Kwesta, was the catalyst to source funds through performances, endorsements etc

When the money came we started paying each other and everyone else salaries. I made it a point to not negotiate anyone's salaries as I felt I couldn't decide how much a person deserved.

When funds were mismanaged and artists/producers complained about splits, I always referred them back to Nota and Leroy as this is what they handled.

Many times Nota came and said funds were being mismanaged and many times, artists/producers complained about how they were represented in split sheets. My lack of action towards this is partly why we are here today.

Because of this, there things that Nota believes I know that I don't and there are things that @only1makwa and @TLTamazing believe that I know and I don't. Naturally leading to being accused of ukudla iy'mali zabantu.
