The reason why the Maskandi celebrity left Zuma!
Mthandeni Manqele who is a talented and popular maskandi artist has parted ways with his guitarist. He made his reason clear saying that the pay in demand was high. Celumusa Zuma caused the decision he made due to the 20% increment in his demand. In taking this decision, he got a new and talented guitarist whose name is Shayinja Zwane. Shayinja Zwane recorded his new hit song which he titled Gucci featuring MaWhoo. Gucci is one of the top song in maskandi music label.
Among the many songs that Mthandeni and Celumusa have collaborated on is the smash tune Paris from last year, which has received over 20 million views on YouTube and received a nomination for Album of the Year at this year’s Satmas. The problem started when he requested Celumusa to play a bass instrument on Gucci, which was published a few weeks before, according to Mthandeni from eMdletsheni, KZN. Celumusa requested 60% for Paris when I invited him to the recording process. I inquired for other artists, such as lead guitarist Mbuzeni Mkhize and keyboardist Jay Jay Mbuthuma. After we performed Paris, I gave him the money he was owed, but he insisted that since the song was popular, he ought to receive credit. He asserted, “I must have R20 million and give him a raise because the song received 20 million views on YouTube,” Mthandeni stated.
Shayinja was brought in and he explained to demonstrate to Celumusa the fact that music is rather instead of the specific musicians is the main focus. I promised to follow up with him. He despises me now, I’m sure. Mthandeni continued, “I noticed he was spitting at me when I watched him play his guitar for another musician. Celumusa said It is untrue what Mthandeni says regarding the 60% rise.
“Even though I never requested for an increment, I get the impression that Mthandeni feels embarrassed that he accomplished more by performing the song by himself and feels obliged to offer me one. He is the one discussing it. When he phoned me to begin recording, I informed him that I had family obligations in KZN and requested that he reschedule the session. He accepted, and I called him to let him know I was free when I got back to Johannesburg. I’m still being patient, even though he promised that he would get back to me,” Celumusa stated.
