Gallo Record Company demands an apology from City Press.
Gallo Music, the publishing arm of Africa's largest independent music label, has hit back at a City Press story.Gallo Record Company has released a statement setting the record straight on a report published on Sunday claiming the music studio had been plunged into darkness after failing to pay a R3m power bill.
In a statement, Gallo said it wished to register “its utmost disgust at the falsehoods being spread by the City Press newspaper”. “What is very disappointing is that City Press did not even offer us an opportunity to respond to these falsehoods — even though it was aware that this would be damaging to our brand and reputation as the oldest recording company in SA. The first time we learnt of this was through a poster that was being circulated on social media mentioning Gallo’s name.
Gallo said it has had no association with the building or Downtown Music Hub for over 10 years now. It stated the following points to support its statement:These studios were however sold to the department of arts & culture over 10 years ago. This fact is publicly known. A simple search would have averted the gross mistake.
