The Sanii Makhalima Episode
Once again, like that annoying boil on your bottom, Zimbabwe’s 34th most beloved podcast is back with another episode. This week we sit down with one of the pioneers of the Zimbabwean Urban Grooves music scene who has been in the game for a decade a half and worked with almost every influential Urban Groove act in the country. None other than Sanii Makhalima!
We discuss his humble beginnings that involved selling freezits to secure studio time to how his independent label Galaxy Records shipped over 100,000 units of music on their own before 2005’s Operation Murambatsvina disrupted their business severely.
We also discuss his massive success, views on Zimbabwean music and how he got walloped by Dan in a tense game of FIFA.
We play out the episode with Sanii's new single titled Mashoko
It’s a new world order, so you get a new episode of your favourite non-problematic, only mildly toxic podcast: Dan & Phil are back, and fear not non-rap fans! This time we talk only very little about the aftermath of Drake vs Kendrick. Dan & Phil delve into the things that made you love them in the first place, your bread & butter issues like black samurai in 16th century Japan (s/o Tongai Chirisa!), conferences for developers from both OpenAI & Google and how they’ve probably already changed your life, and most importantly, how to reliably and ethically make sure that the person you’re dating is ready for marriage.
