Makhadzi’s story about her problem with Open Mic Productions triggered another artist the name Real Paige to recount how she suffered the same fate as the hitmaker.
Over the past weekend, the Limpopo-born star revealed how the music company renewed another 3 years contract with her without her consent.
The incident precedes Makhadzi’s announcement of ending her work relationship with the company according to the contract.
However, to her surprise the company renewed it and she also revealed that they haven’t paid her a cent for all the songs delivered.
Taking to Twitter Real Paige said she signed a 3-page contract with Open Mic, but the company returned with 17-page soft copies after a year.
“What Makhadziis going through, is exactly the same thing am currently going through. From millions of streams, I have never received any benefit or a penny from those millions of streams. I remember signing a contract which was 3 pages,” she wrote.
“I requested a copy and was promised to get one in no time when I get home in 2021. The copy wasn’t sent to me as promised and throughout the year 2021, with my team and manager, we kept on requesting a copy of the contract and Open Mic couldn’t send it until July 2022.”
“to my surprise, when a 3-page contract I signed came back as a 17-page contract with my initials and signature on each and every page. The initials and signature were forged on all those pages, we then requested to come and see the original copy of this 17-page contract, and stories came up and all of a sudden they don’t have the original document, so out of fear, we decided to keep quiet because there were threats on my life and that of my management and team. Well, I just put my trust that God will answer my prayers one day, nothing trumps faith, God will be my soldier and protector.”
