Sharing a picture of the now-defunct label's co-owners Thembinkosi "TK" Nciza and Sibusiso Leope, better known as DJ Sbu, Khawula captioned the post:

"Robbie Malinga's widower, Ann, demands over R5 million from TS Records in unpaid royalties. Ann says TK Nciza and DJ Sbu have never paid any royalties since the passing of her husband in 2017."

TS records shut down the same year Malinga died after launching in 2001.

Saffas add to controversial chatter

Social media users had plenty to say about the latest development surrounding Malinga's royalties after the label allegedly snubbed its other artists, including Zahara and ProKid.

The post attracted 177K views, 1 200 likes, almost 300 reposts and 100 comments.
