Babes Wodumo Explains Why Artists Want Hlaudi Back
Babes Wodumo has painted a vivid picture about why the 90% quota is important. There has been a lot of drama going on at the SABC in the last couple of months and rumour has it, artists might lose the 90% quota that Hlaudi made happen last year.
The ‘Wololo’ hitmaker has opened up about how she feels like artists would have to go back to eating cabbage because the international artists will be making so much money that would have been going to our local artists if the quota is kept.
“If they end the 90% quota, international artists will make a lot of money and local artists will not be recognised in our country at all. We are going to eat cabbage and potatoes if they take the 90% away from us. You already find actors without cars and staying in flats and the situation will get worse. We don’t care what is happening at the SABC, we just want the 90% quota to remain,” she told TshisaLIVE.
“We want Hlaudi back. He is a father to all of us (artists). He gave actors contracts and a decent salary,” she added.
