He opened a flood,\u201d Lebo M said during the interview.<\/p>\n<p>The composer explained that he felt compelled to respond publicly to protect his reputation and his family, especially his daughter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I drop dead, and I don\u2019t address this, my daughter is going to be humiliated by your son, thinking that I Lebo M, tried to extort 30 grand. So, I have to address this thing,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Lebo M went further, alleging that he had stepped in financially to support Marawa\u2019s son before legal action was taken.<\/p>\n<p>He claimed the situation only changed after Mthiyane pursued maintenance through the courts, accusing Marawa of neglect prior to that.<\/p>\n<p>The interview took an even more heated turn when Lebo M, visibly emotional, directly addressed Marawa with a stern warning, demanding that he correct the claims made about him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou will respect my child\u2019s future. You will respect your son\u2019s future. You will correct this nonsense, punk ahh,\u201d he said, looking straight into the camera.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Lebo M is currently working on lawsuit of 27 Million Dollars \ud83d\udcb0over a joke \ud83d\udccd<\/p>\n<p>We got the chance to speak \ud83d\udde3\ufe0f to the Legendary composer \ud83c\udfbc as he gives his side of the story behind the infamous lawsuit \ud83d\udcb8 not forgetting the never ending beef between him and Robert Marawa \ud83e\udd69<\/p>\n<p>Get\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/toHuqomKMn\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/toHuqomKMn<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Podcast and Chill Network (@podcastwithmacg) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/podcastwithmacg\/status\/2047231074699293172?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">April 23, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 4 -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#Lebo #finally #reveals #sparked #bitter #feud #Robert #Marawa<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; Lebo M and Robert Marawa Award-winning composer Lebo M has finally lifted the lid on his long-standing fallout with&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":57125,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-57124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mzansi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57124"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57124\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":57126,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57124\/revisions\/57126"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
