In May, Bulelwa Mkutukana, better known by her stage name Zahara, had a social media meltdown in which she revealed her financial troubles to the globe. After Netbank auctioned off her townhouse, she was featured in the news. This was owing to the musician’s inability to repay her bank debt. Today, country music fans awoke to the wonderful news that their collective efforts have paid off.
After realizing that the life for which she had labored so hard was falling apart, Zahara continued to live where she had broken down. The performer told her audience how DJ Sbu scammed her of her hard-earned money. Zahara is one of the many musicians who have exposed their managements and recording labels to theft. The artist had produced some of the most popular songs in the South African music business but had nothing to show for it.

Zahara blamed DJ Sbu for not paying royalties
Zahara attributed her financial problems to DJ Sbu’s record label. This occurred after Barry Roux tweeted that Zahara should re-record her Loliwe album for profit. Even though DJ Sbu dismissed the rumors and stated that Zahara had been compensated, she exposed them for posting the song to streaming services without paying her royalties after she left his label. In response to this news, the performer requested donations from her audience, indicating she was destitute.

As the artist is widely known to be a heavy drinker, many individuals blamed drugs and alcohol. After failing to repay her mortgage loan, the bank repossessed her home, revealing that she had suffered. The residence is located in Roodepoort, west of Johannesburg. Nonetheless, the public donated to the artist with the assistance of Radio 2000. The auction has been canceled, Zahara is now the owner of the property, and her loan has been repaid.
