Echoing his comments in a recent Podcast and Chill interview, Lebo M said he felt it was important to contact Marawa because the broadcaster's son was now living under his roof. He said the call was made out of respect and for the two men to discuss matters concerning the child.
“Then she moved to South Africa with her son and me, but immediately, because I learned she has Robert Marawa's son, we're industry buddies with Robert, I call him. Your son is in my world now. Signal zoom. You know, man-to-man, I already know there's drama between mom and dad. Shoot, by the time I meet Zoe, I got my own drama with my own other mothers of my children. Yeah. So, we agree with Robert Marawa that when I come with Zoe and the son, we'll make connect,” Lebo M said.
The composer said he expected the two to meet after the conversation, but claimed that never happened. He alleged that despite living relatively close to each other, Marawa never followed up after the call.
“Never heard from Robert Marawa since landing with his son. I'm at Blair Atholl. He's 25 minutes in Fourways,” he added.

“It’s very disrespectful for another man to phone another man and tell him that he is now dating his ex. What Lebo M did was stupid and disrespectful.”
