Podcast and Chill host MacG exposes record label Sony music for wanting to exploit him in broad day light. MacG profusely thanks his lawyer who meticulously read the contract thoroughly only to pick up some clauses that were giving all of MacG's music right to Sony forever.
MacG is thankful to his lawyer who has rescued him from signing a deal with the devil. This comes after the record label Sony music approached MacG with some possible work relationship. However, things went side ways when MacG sends the contract to his lawyers. It became apparent that Sony music was working in the shadows to exploit MacG.
"So, I went out to Sony cause I don't want to do all the admin ad Sony is a big company. They sent me the contract 'dawg' about thirty pages, so I sent it to my lawyer 'shout out to Tanya'. She came back and there was in clause in there, now I am paraphrasing but there was a clause in there that said, after three years of the contract they will own my music forever" said MacG

The outraged MacG inserts that after they sent back the contract for certain clauses to be amended. Sony immediately replied back saying they had no intentions of pursuing the contract anymore.
"So we sent it back in an email saying 'okay cool, we like the contract but please amend this clause and this clause and this clause. They replied back saying 'ah sorry we don't want to pursue this contract anymore, good luck" said MacG
Tweeps are outraged and at the same time in complete disbelief at the exploitation that artists and musicians go through at the hands of record labels because of certain clauses. Tweeps have gone and made an example with Zahara who has had her fair share of conflict with her record label.
"Maybe this what happened to Zahara..." wrote Sthembiso Ngemah
