The controversy surrounding Le Band’s release of Za Kale has simmered down, for now. This is after the group comprising Charisma, Ken Mwendwa and Joel Maina reached out to budding producer and songwriter Beck alias Mapenzi Baby after she harpooned the runaway hit over unpaid dues.
Beck’s tiff with Le Band came to the fore after she took to Twitter and voiced her displeasure over how the boy band failed to credit and pay her. According to Beck, she wrote the song five years ago in memory of her boyfriend who passed on three years earlier. She noted that she was surprised when the group released it two months ago.
