In recent months, Nomcebo has been involved in a legal battle with her former record label, Open Mic Productions. The singer claims she was not paid for her vocals on the chart-topping hit Jerusalema, despite the song's worldwide success.
Not only did she drag the company to court, but she also exposed her former bosses in a documentary about the unfair treatment she was subjected to:
"My contract says I must be paid a certain percentage every 3 months, but Openmic have never paid me a cent, and still they want me to continue to give them 2 more albums."
Meanwhile, Briefly News reported that the singer is knee-deep in debt after losing her case to the controversial record label.
