HOT GOSSIP ABOUT THE
SONG ‘MTHANDE’
Mthande is considered as a
promo track because it was
leaked by my producer prior
time due to excitement and
amazement. The producer didn’t
believe that Sphiwe can perform
fireworks and flames on the
beat because it was given to
artists approximately six or so.
Sphiwe confirms that the song
Mthande has two version
whereby the first one was done
by Aembu and Exclusive Drums
and the second one was done
by Teedo. The beat was also
granted to another recording
artist after an agreement with
the producer which infringe the
copyrights owned by Sphiwe.
