In a dramatic turn of events, Rush Mabanana, a former dancer for popular artist Makhadzi, has publicly declared war on his ex-boss, alleging mistreatment and underpayment during their time working together. Mabanana, who gained fame as one of Makhadzi’s backup dancers, expressed his grievances during a recent TikTok Live session, claiming he was paid significantly less than his counterpart, Limpopo Boy.
Mabanana revealed that he earned R10,000 less than Limpopo Boy, despite feeling he brought more energy and talent to the performances. “I don’t give a f*&$ how people will take what I have to say, but the truth must come out,” he stated. He also recalled a troubling incident at the Botswana border, where he took the fall for Makhadzi during a near-arrest situation, highlighting his loyalty and willingness to protect her.
In a follow-up interview with Zimoja, Mabanana expressed his determination to confront Makhadzi, saying, “What you started will not finish. I will make Makhadzi suffer.” He claimed to have kept quiet for too long while protecting her reputation, but felt betrayed when she allegedly spoke poorly about him behind his back.
While Mabanana has been making waves internationally, touring overseas, he emphasized that he won’t remain silent about his experiences. “I’m not sitting around and being broke,” he added.
Makhadzi’s manager, Lucky Tshilimandila, responded to the allegations, expressing hope that the two could resolve their differences amicably. “It’s not easy to part ways with someone you have worked with for a long time. There are two sides to every story,” he noted. Tshilimandila suggested that once emotions settle, a conversation could help clear the air. As the situation unfolds, fans and followers of both Mabanana and Makhadzi are left anticipating how this public feud will develop and whether the two will be able to reconcile their differences.
