VIDEO: TS Records owes Zahara R10M to R30M after her first album “Loliwe” made R20 Million

Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that TS Records owes Zahara R10M to R30M after her first album “Loliwe” made R20 Million.

DJ Sbu and TK Nciza dragged into singer’s passing

As Mzansi mourns the tragic passing of songstress Zahara, fans are slamming TS Records co-founders DJ Sbu and TK Nciza for ‘exploiting her’.

The multi-award-winning songstress’ passing was confirmed by Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture, Zizi Kodwa, on Monday night.

The Loliwe hitmaker and DJ Sbu have not been on good terms for years and it all started when she accused the DJ Sbu and TK Nciza who were her record label executives at her former label, TS Recordsof exploiting her.

In 2019, the songstress claimed she did not receive royalties from her former bosses for her debut album Loliwe. The album sold over 500 000 copies and won her several awards.

But, according to DJ Sbu, this is not the case. In July last year, he attempted to clear his name when he took to Twitter to write: “Ms Zahara’s money has always gone to her.”

In response, the loliwe singer rubbished his claims and called him a liar.

“I haven’t been getting anything since I left the record label and I saw recently that my music was uploaded on digital platforms without me knowing, it means they sold my records to somebody and it means I need to get a cut for it.”

DJ Sbu and Zahara’s feud has been ongoing, with each party claiming the other is not being truthful. Speaking to TshisaLive in 2021, DJ Sbu fired back at the Destiny singer saying he “built” himself from “nothing”.

“I’ve never sought an opportunity to benefit from someone or try take somebody else’s money,” he added.

She again spoke up about her woes with TS Records during her 2021 interview with MacG and Sol Phenduka on Podcast and Chill. Zahara revealed that TS Records owed her millions of rands.

She alleged that her booking fee was between R80 000 and R120 000, but Dj Sbu and Nciza would only give her R15 000.

During Zahara’s hardship last year, when she was on the brink of losing her townhouse in Roodeport, she again blamed her financial challenges on DJ Sbu and Nciza.
