Makhadzi owes almost R6 million to SARS.
According to Spotify, with 23 million streams, 1.5 million listeners in 15 million hours, and 183 countries, she is the most streamed female artist in South Africa. Makhadzi, a singer and dancer, went from performing on street corners and at taxi ranks to touring international stages. ZiMoja has discovered that Makhadzi has not paid her taxes since she peaked.
ZiMoja has learned from an insider that since her big success in the music business, the MaGear singer owes the South African Revenue Services (SARS) more than R6 million. ZiMoja has obtained records that show Makhadzi has been behind on completing her taxes for a number of years. She was not aware that she was failing to pay taxes and VAT on the majority of her bookings, and endorsements.
We hope that the Singer can get this resolved and continue to bless us with her beautiful music.
