Makhadzi heartbroken over Open Mic’s contract renewal
Makhadzi cries out for help after Open Mic Productions renewed her contract.
A few days ago, the singer announced the end of working relationship with the music company after three years.
She further shared a statement detailing what she’s achieved over the years.
However, she returned to social media on Saturday to share a new letter received from the company with the title, “Renewal of Management Agreement.”
“We as Open Mic Productions (the management) are pleased to inform you that we are hereby renewing or extending the contract period for an additional period of three (3) years with effect from the 09th of March 2023 in terms of clause 63 of the Management Agreement entered into between yourself and Open Mic Productions (PTY) on the 10th of March 2020,” reads the statement.
Makhadzi lamented at the renewal of the contract which she isn’t aware of, and perceives as a form of slavery.
So I can see those clause? And how positive is that to renew my contract without sitting down with me ? And how about my money for my album cz you haven’t never sent any cent , how posible is that for you to renew my contract without coming to me, what if I not happy working wit

Makhadzi said Open Mic never gave her a contract despite requesting it upon being signed by them 3 years ago.
She further revealed that a new MD was appointed and hired to threaten her.
“Only open mic knows this clause alone I requested my contract again yesterday maybe they will send it so I can see, the clause. Like I said they never gave me a copy, they just promised me they will send for three years,” she tweeted.
