Nadia Mukami confesses to getting arrested twice (Video)

Mellow-voiced female songbird, Nadia Mukami has on several occasions been accused to be rude not just to fans but to everyone not known to her.

A stand she now believes was taken by individuals who did not like the fact that she is a woman and one who can stand for what she believes in.

Anyway, speaking to comedian Jalang´o, the African popstar pinned her character to the brutal things she had gone through in life. Unknown to many, Nadia spent nights behind bars after her fallout with Hailemind entertainment.

It all started when she had to move out of her parents´ house and fend for herself and a future.

I moved from Mwihoko in 2018, before I graduated. I just packed my things, when my parents left for work, and went to stay at Hailemind where I was signed. After Coke Studio, I got some cash and got a house at Fedha where I used to sleep on the floor.

Dispute

Nadia had already recorded 3 songs at  Hailemind but it got to a place they could no longer work together. Unfortunately, the label got her arrested and took her to court.

I approached Hailemind entertainment, I had written my plan, biography and pitched myself. He signed me, we did 3 songs, on the 4th song I left. I was taken to court, I was arrested. I was crying everyday, I´m broke, I have big songs on TV, but I still had to smile.

The hustle proved fruitful in the end after wining the case against her accusers. Only to later get re-arrested and have her songs taken away.

Lawyers are not cheap, I won the case. I was arrested again, my dad intervened but I told him I will carry my cross. I had my songs Radio Love which were all taken away, I was not getting money from it. I actually won my case this year.
