Lyn Magogo says the song Eriza by Jah Prayzah catapulted her into fame but Jah Parayzah did not pay her in money.
She told DJ Ollah in an interview : “Akandideedza akati, so
how do you want to be paid and, ini nekuziva nhamo yangu kuti handisati
ndasimuka I could not opt for money because ndaiita mashows angu aindipa
twumari twangu, I was actually driving by then, ndikati mukoma ini chandinoda
ndechekuti pamunoita mashows ndodawo kunge ndiri part and parcel of that thing,
vanhu vandizive, that was the agreement, though he gave me something, yethanks.
I think my decision there yanga itori the best decision, because mari
yandaipihwa naJah Prayzah yaisa kwanisa kuti nditenge mota. But after that I
could buy cars. Whenever JP held shows the promoter would book me separately, mari
yacho yaitouya yakawanda handidi kukunyepera.”
She also said Jah Prayzah had invited her to join his band when Gonyeti left. But she could not join because she said she danced mainly to rhumba music.
Eriza confirmed that she cheated on her then husband with a
car dealer based in South Africa, prompting him to question the paternity of
their daughter. DNA tests were done but she refused to disclose who the daddy
was, saying she will only reveal these to her daughter when she is ready. She
said her cheating was not the reason her marriage fell apart but it was a combination
of issues.
