Harmonize's former signee, Killy has revealed that before he and two other signees left the singer's label, they were forced to return cars that were given as gifts when joining the record label.

Speaking to Wasafi Media, Killy said the cars were under Harmonize's name and that they were not part of the contract.

All the signees who had been given cars were forced to return them when Harmonize terminated their contracts.

"Mwenye Gari zake alisema tuziache Sasa mimi ningefanyaje ? . Gari zilisajiliwa kwa Jina la Konde Gang, na hizikuwepo kwenye Mkataba wetu "

(The owner of the cars said we should leave them behind, what could we have done? The cars were under his name and were not part of our contracts)

In a previous interview, Killy said that Harmonize terminated his contract and three others (Angela, Cheed, and Country Boy). 

"Konde Gang terminated the artiste's contracts. No one ever said that we wanted to leave. We got a call to attend a meeting and we were told that as management they wanted to terminate our contracts. People think we left the label but it is them that terminated the contracts and only one signee was left. The CEO is the owner and he did what he wanted, it is business at the end of the day."

Before being signed by Harmonize Killy and Cheed were under Alikiba's label, Kings' Music.

"Maamuzi ya kutoka Kings yalikuwa yetu binafsi hatukushauriwa na mtu yoyote sisi ni watu wazima tuliamua mwenyewe na hata biashara hakuna mtu kati ni sisi na uongozi wa Konde na hakutupeleka mtu Konde Gang."

(The decision to leave Alikiba's label was made by ourselves. No one ever advised us to leave because we are adults and when we went to Harmonize we took ourselves there) 

Asked how much Harmonize had invested in them, Killy laughed.

"How much they invested laughed. They invested what they wanted to invest until I left. They obviously got profit because it is business at the end of the day, there are digital platforms and remember the songs were a hit."

While announcing their exit last year, Harmonize through his record label announced that he and the artistes reached an amicable agreement to terminate the contracts.

"For that reason, these artistes will be free to work and make a contract with any company or individual. We believe they are talented young men who have the potential of making it in the music industry," read the statement.
