One Night in Africa with Oliver Mtukudzi: AYISECACE!
Asanda Bam, Oliver Mtukudzi and Jaziel Brothers on stage.
Once again the team jets off to Carnival City. We got tempted by the gambling machines, thanks to the security for showing us Top Arena. Ekurhuleni was on fire with the likes of Asanda Bam, Jaziel Brothers and some Zim artist …who has released over 40 albums thus far. Tata when were you born? Maybe his first album was released whilst he was in Pre School. Thomas something I forget the name as I was holding my breath for Oliver, who is looking vey sick yet he can still deliver the same.
Asanda Bam and her velvet long fabric dress. Sisi don’t you have a stylist or something to change? Love your fake smile on Umjojo. Did you go to the same school with Rebecca Malope and Lundi? What makes you go down your knees; we all know you can sing? Who is your hairstylist I bet you, he must have prison influence to do such dangerous looking hairstyle. It’s always nice to see you on stage and AYISECACE crew loves Ndakusowa, even though we do not miss you yet.
Finally Jaziel Brothers get on the groove. Yes! the brothers can move and even dance on stage. Thanks to their new backup singer. He is a miracle choreographer, for the backup ladies… loosen up girls, it’s not a church gathering. At first I thought they were some hospitality crew … ladies please get rid of those air hostesses scurf’s and pants. Black and white tuxedos by Jaziel broers, I almost mistake them for Bala, brothers at the backstage. Our moment came when Oliver joined Jaziel on stage for the first time singing”Africa.”
One night in Africa came down. Zimbabwean fans flock like headless chicken as the MC announces Oliver Mtukudzi on stage. The venue went black all over. It felt like we were in Zim with Mugabe at some tradition celebration. Tuku’s all white outfits like an angel. Hope it’s not a sign. Angel’s do sing too… The Mbira legend took the centre stage. Despite Tuku’s current health status, he is still strong enough to please the crowd. Thanks to Sheer Music for the invite. Next time please cater for your crew at least. They look so tired and hungry. AYISECACE!
