Award-winning composer Lebo M has addressed his ongoing dispute with seasoned broadcaster Robert Marawa.
Diving into the discussion on Podcast and Chill, the prominent music figure linked their disagreement to assertions made in Marawa’s autobiography, Gqimm Shelele: The Robert Marawa Story.
Lebo indicated that tensions rose when Marawa purportedly claimed that he and actress-singer Zoe Mthiyane tried to extort money from him.
“There’s no way I would have said anything had Robert Marawa not said some BS about me in his biography. He opened a flood,” Lebo M stated during the dialogue.
He felt he needed to respond publicly in order to uphold his reputation, particularly for the sake of his daughter.
“If I drop dead, and I don’t address this, my daughter is going to be humiliated by your son, thinking that I Lebo M, tried to extort 30 grand. So, I have to address this thing,” he explained.
Lebo M further claimed he had provided financial assistance to Marawa’s son before legal proceedings commenced.
He asserted that the dynamic shifted only after Mthiyane sought maintenance through legal channels, alleging Marawa’s previous negligence.
The conversation intensified when Lebo M, visibly moved, directly confronted Marawa, insisting that he amend the accusations made against him.
“You will respect my child’s future. You will respect your son’s future. You will correct this nonsense, punk ahh,” he remarked, addressing the camera.
Lebo M is currently working on a lawsuit of 27 Million Dollars 💰 over a joke 🛂
