‘Boss Zonke’ Vocalist Reveals How Much She Was Offered To Sign Off The Song Rights To Riky Rick. Riky Rick‘s Boss Zonke’s track was one of the songs on the late rapper’s catalogue that propelled him to be one of the most talked-about hip hop stars in South Ah.
The vocalist of the song Sanelelasta Mkhize revealed how much she was offered to sign off the song rights to Riky. During the ESAM Podcast interview, the vocalist revealed that she was offered R,3500 to sign off her rights to one of the biggest songs in SA hip hop.
“The contract that was sent, it was basically if I sign this contract I have no right to anything and he’ll give me a specific amount of fee and I sign myself off the song and it belongs to him,” she said. Sanelelasta went on and made it clear that she never signed the contract up until this very day.
“The payment was ridiculous it was R3500, and I never signed the contract to this day,” Sanelelasta said. This is not the first time the Boss Zonke vocalist has shared her story of what happened during the making of the song.
She has previously admitted that she wishes she had signed a contract first before singing. “It’s a very long story but to cut it short. I have never received a cent from Ricky Rick for Boss Zonke let alone the right credit. I made a mistake by not signing a contract before I sang.” she said.
Riky Rick’s death devastated the South African music industry, but the rapper left something that people will remember forever. His music has both enlightened and entertained us about family values.
