Msaki Advises Against Signing Into SA Record Labels

Msaki, Asanda Lusaseni Mvana’s stage name, warns musicians against record labels.

The artist, who previously proclaimed a hiatus from social media platforms, returned to Twitter to caution against signing with these labels.

She claims that signing to labels will be the end of the talent’s career.

“When someone says I jst got signed in SA … i first think – “my condolences to your career “– and then my mouth says “is this what you’ve always wanted?” And then I say “let’s hope for the best” then I get ready for the calls to pep-talk them when the label is labelling,” she wrote.

Some of her followers understood her statement, while other questioned her.

“They take a cut of your Master Rights, then advance you money on your share of your Master Rights, then you pay it back with funds only from your share of your Master Rights. Basically you just gave away a share of your Master Rights for nothing,” a tweep reacted.

What do you think about Msaki’s claim?
