Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 52338, member: 636"] Podcaster Nota Baloyi has stirred controversy by asserting his involvement in creating Mlindo The Vocalist's breakthrough album Emakhaya. The 2018 release continues gaining momentum on Spotify as it approaches record status for becoming the most-streamed South African solo project from the previous decade. Baloyi made his assertion on social media platform X while the album's streaming numbers generated widespread discussion. He stated that he contributed to writing and arranging the lead single AmaBlesser. The track helped establish Mlindo as a prominent figure within the amapiano movement. Official album documentation fails to mention Baloyi among the credited contributors. DJ Maphorisa receives recognition for production work alongside featured artists Sjava, Kwesta and Thabsie throughout the project. Social media users have responded with considerable doubt regarding Baloyi's sudden revelation. Many questioned the timing of his announcement and demanded evidence supporting his participation. Critics have accused the podcaster of attempting to capitalize on Mlindo's current success momentum. The controversy highlights ongoing debates about behind-the-scenes contributions within South African music production. Ghostwriting arrangements remain common practice across the industry despite limited public acknowledgment. Baloyi's track record of provocative statements has influenced public reception of his latest claims. The streaming milestone continues generating attention regardless of the attribution dispute surrounding the album's creation. [/QUOTE]
