FORMER ANCWL president Bathabile Dlamini's daughter, Sikhumbuzo "Midnight Uzo" Mazibuko, nearly quit her music career while she was still starting.
This is after one of her music producers asked to have sex with her.
Midnight Uzo (27) recently released her six-track debut EP, titled New Genesis.
Midnight Uzo told Daily Sun that she had to change the studio and producers after the incident.
"I nearly gave up on my music career after one of the producers made the unfortunate move on me. I was left confused.
"I had just finished recording with one of the music producers at that time, but he turned against me at the last minute, and he started saying naughty things and asking tlof tlof," she said.

Midnight Uzo said her relationship with the producer turned sour as she felt unsafe.
"It was a difficult situation because I had many unanswered questions just when I started doing what I love and faced a big challenge.
"I just thought maybe I should not paint all music producers with the same pad brush because there are some good ones," she said.
On Monday, 27 March, the musician from Pietermaritzburg in KZN graduated with her honours degree in musicology at Stellenbosch University.
"Now I'm working with a new team of producers who take me as their younger sister. When I sit down and think about what happened to me, I think of people who disappear in the music industry because of incidents related to mine," Midnight Uzo said.
