In the latest episode of “Podcast and Chill” local podcaster MacG and his team weighed in on amapiano vocalist Lady Du’s tweets about her management woes.
The controversial podcast usually focuses on trending stories and, of course, had to touch on Lady Du’s claims.
Last week, the queen of amapiano took to Twitter where she laid bare her management’s allegedly abusive and manipulative behaviours.
In a series of tweets, Lady Du accused her management team of sabotaging her career. Her claims shocked many people, considering that she is one of the biggest acts in the country.
MacG and Sol Phenduka gave their take on the matter, commending Lady Du for being honest.
“So when you are Lady Du and that big. Don’t you just need a booking agent?” asked MacG.
The podcasters said that Lady Du was offered plenty of gigs and surely did not need a manager to secure gigs for her.
Sol was shocked to find out that Lady Du’s manager was Thabiso Khati, also known as The Hip-Hop Scholar, a well-known music executive. He has vast experience in the industry; he previously worked with CashTime Life and was the CEO until he stepped down in 2017.
MacG said this is probably why Lady Du opted to work with him as she saw the potential for him to take her career to the next level.
According to Lady Du, her manager has been sabotaging her by telling promoters that she was not available.
My manager is telling people I’m unavailable for bookings
He says he doesn’t work on weekends and doesn’t pay me on time
Mind you I don’t work for him he gets paid off my bookings!!!
Has started taking cash from promoters I’m in hell guys I’ve been crying everyday nje— Ladydu (@Ladydu_sa) February 18, 2022
