The Phiona Okumu Episode
Much like a mangy stray dust-coloured dog that gobbled up the piece of pie you mistakenly dropped to the ground after stealing it, 2 Broke Twimbos keeps coming back. And today we bring you some pearls, nuggets, gems and mealie kernels of wisdom from someone who knows a lot about the entertainment business in Africa. Her name is Phiona Okumu, and attached to her name is the influence associated with being the Editor of AfriPOP! Magazine and African music curator for The Guardian among many other things.
In this episode, Dan & Phil unlock secrets on how to make their hot fire mixtape successful, we analyze some African artists and their journeys towards (and away from) success. Look out for lessons from Ice Prince, K'naan, Tumi Molekane and others. Also, a look at ZimDancehall and bribery methods that Dan & Phil will accept. We close off the show with Tocky Vybz' high flying single Toti Toti.
Go on ahead and invite us into your house please, the 2 Broke Twimbos are back again with something new new. Dan & Phil take a sombre moment to address some of the tragedies that seem to be coming thick and fast these days, like the Air India flight crash or the floods in the Eastern Cape in South Africa. But the show does go on, the pair review the BET Awards and share some real talk about Madam Boss's presence there. They also talk Timbaland starting A-Pop (look it up) and AI when it comes to creative content in general. TLDR: We're cooked. Oh, and Sinners, and Mountainhead and loads of stuff, enjoy!
