Allegations of abuse and impropriety in the New Zealand music business have caused a second major manager to resign, following earlier news that Lorde’s ex-manager had stepped down from his firm. Now the manager of “Supalonely” singer Benee, Paul McKessar, has left the firm he cofounded and directed, CRS Management director, after after days of addressing charges of sexual harassment.
The scandals have arisen largely as a result of the New Zealand publication Stuff publishing an investigative report revealing a rampant culture of misogyny and exploitation behind the scenes in the business.
