Weezdom on managerial position
Singer Weezdom quit being singer Bahati’s manager in 2021, citing various reasons for his exit. He took to social media and announced his exit, saying he was thankful to have worked with the EMB boss.
Further, he added that he was hopeful that Bahati’s new team would deliver and help him (Bahati) achieve his dreams.
“It is that time of my life that I will need to move on my own way and you the same,” Weezdom wrote.
Weezdom had been appointed as Bahati’s music and content manager in June 2020, a few months after he ditched the gospel music industry over what he termed too much hatred.
Weezdom has said he stopped being a gospel artiste due to the harsh treatment he received from the church and the gospel family.
”I took a music break, but Gospel is like a family. There is a church that told me to never step on their podium due to the many scandals I was in,” Weezdom added.
