SOUTH Africa-based Maskandi group Amafikamahle is making it big across the Limpopo and has just won the best song of the year award.
The hit son is Unbelievable. It got the best prize in the KZN CAMAS awards last month that were held at Kwazulu Natal, South Africa. In an interview, Xolani Tshuma, the manager of the group expressed gratitude to people who voted for them.
“I would like to thank all those who voted for us especially our fellow Zimbabweans who supported us all the way. This means a lot to us and we are excited to have won this award and the fact that we are foreigners gives us more confidence going forward as artistes,” he said.
The group manager said South African people love their music and even though they are foreigners they are treated fairly. Amafikamahle already has three albums.
“We have three albums, these are Unembeza, Ungungunyane and Unbelievable that won us this accolade. Our music has been played a lot in SA radio stations and also in Zimbabwe in stations like Khulumani, Radio Zimbabwe and Skies Metro. In five years we want to be one of the best Maskandi group in Africa and our fans should keep supporting us all the way,” said Tshuma.
