In a lengthy post, Makhadzi have explained how payments have been distributed in a period of three years with Open Mic. She claims after releasing four album which some reached both gold and platinum status, she never received any money from album sales but performances.
I signed with Open Mic only for three years. In [these] sp three years I dropped 4 albums. I have never received any cent of my sales. Some of my album[s] reached platinum, some gold. And a lot of [the] hit songs that reached platinum and gold. But I continue to work without complaining [because] all I wanted was to serve my contract, to avoid them saying I bridged the contract.
I’m talking about the contract that I signed and no one [was] allowed to give me a copy. I worked with Open Mic without a copy of my contract ever since they said they will send it. I kept on reminding them but no one was willing to send me my contract.”
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
