Open Mic Producer and one of Makhadzi’s closest ally, Mr Brown has been deported to Zimbabwe for not renewing his work permit and overstaying in the country.
The producer who is known for his numerous hit was prevented from entering the country at the border gate on his way from Botswana. The producer said Open Mic Productions was supposed to sort out the issues with immigration but they later backed out, citing financial constrains.
“I went out to Botswana then on my way back I was stopped. I was alone. My only issue was that the label was supposed to help me to sort the matter in three days but they said it was too costly to pay my lawyer and I was sent back home. I overstayed and I was then supposed to appeal but I didn’t and that is how I was refused entry back to South Africa,” he told Zimoja.
The producer who seems to have a close relationship with Makhadzi is getting affected by the current atmosphere caused by the contract renewal tussle and he might not be returning until everything is settled.
“I can come back if I want to anytime, but I am still good here. I am just worried about my wife ,who is giving birth this month. To be honest, I am avoiding the drama that is currently happening between Makhadzi and Open Mic. I don’t want to be seen as taking sides or be caught in the crossfire, so I want to stay in Zim until the dust settles,” he says.
