MUSIC sensation Mlindo the Vocalist is allegedly in hot water with his former manager, Mehluko Mawo.
According to sources, Mehluko claimed Mlindo breached his contract and betrayed him when he was signed under DJ Maphorisa’s Blaqboy Music.
The two allegedly had a contract which stated that Mlindo was supposed to be part of Mabala Noise.
But Mlindo allegedly left without a warning while they were still negotiating with the record label.
Yesterday, Mlindo said:“I’ve never signed any contract before the one I signed with Black Boy Sony Music by Maphorisa. I don’t know what you’re talking about. Please, tell Mehluko to go ahead and sue me. I don’t know what he’s talking about.”
Sources claimed Mehluko used to organise gigs for Mlindo.
And he got him a gig that made Mabala be interested in him as an artist.
According to sources, the AmaBlesser hitmaker is currently not happy where he is and he keeps on telling people he knew him when he was still a social media sensation that he wants to leave Maphorisa but can’t go back to the previous manager. because things are not all rosy.
“Mehluko wants Mlindo to end the contract with Maphorisa or he’ll sue him as he invested a lot in his career,” claimed the first source.
“This is bad because then he said he was the one who helped Mlindo build the brand and he convinced him to talk to Mabala Noise when he does him just up and leave because Maphorisa is the current hot things.’
The second source said Mehluko was not jealous of Mlindo’s success, but wanted him to fix the damage he’s done.because the music industry people work with you and loyalty is required from people.
“Mehluko is disappointed because even when they meet at events Mlindo acts like a stranger.
“Mlindo mustn’t mistreat those who took videos of him when he was trying to get attention from industry big shots,” said the source.
Attempts to reach Mehluko proved fruitless as his phone was constantly on voicemail.
