-- MAKHADZI CLEARS THE AIR ON ALLEGED NO-SHOW According to SowetanLive, Makhadzi was allegedly no-show at her gig in Limpopo in May. The publication further reports that the singer's record label, Open Mic Productions, has been slapped with a letter of demand from Paledi Events Management who is demanding R159 000 from them.
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday 20 July, Makhadzi said she would never pull a no-show on purpose.
I don't take people's money. A company takes all the bookings on my behalf. They don't pay me for work I didn't do All the money in my account I worked for it. I have been promoting my UK and Canada tours for months
All of a sudden there is a show I was supposed to be at that I didn't even know about and I am dragged. Reporters should also verify and understand these documents they're sent I understand it will make news with the name Makhadzi but I do not swindle people's money.

SAMA NOMINATIONS This year, Makhadzi received her first-ever South African Music Award (SAMA) nominations. The performer is up for three awards including SAMPRA Artist of the Year and Music Video of the Year for Ghanama featuring Prince Benza.
A representative for Open Mic Productions told Daily Sun that it was a big achievement for Makhadzi.
Especially because the SAMAs are a big local brand and for her to be part of it is a big deal.
