In October 2021 Bonang revealed she had parted ways with her agency, Celebrity Services Africa (CSA).
A local publication said it believed the fight between Bonang and CSA was due to her sparkling wine brand, The House of BNG. Her camp claimed she was muscled out of it by the agency, which dismissed the allegations.
In an exclusive interview with the publication, Bonang spoke of the lessons she’d learnt when dealing with agencies.
“Creatives and talent and business start-ups, and young people entering entertainment, media and those entering business must acquire knowledge and have solid checks and balances when dealing with agencies that represent you and your brand. Get every proposal or agreement checked by lawyers. Hire your own, independent lawyers and other experts so you do not get the agency to ‘help’ you with reviewing business proposals. This is critical. It was key for me to identify some issues,” she shared.
“Remember, an ‘agency’ enables you and your business and represents your interests. They ‘do not own you’ and ‘you do not work for them’. Guard against their attitude or posture or intentions of superiority and disrespect and condescending stances. Act swiftly to correct that.”
