Oliver Mtukudzi & Busiswa Link Up To Produce Gidah on Coke Studio

News, Music

In Zimbabwe we only have two celebrities – The president and Tuku. Everyone else is just a notable person.  One of those celebs recently appeared on Coke Studio South Africa to produce a truly impressive mash up.

Oliver Mtukudzi linked up with the first lady of Kalawa (and my personal WCW) Busiswa on Gidah, a high tempo uplifting song that merges Shona & Zulu over Tuku’s signature sound.

I would sacrifice my daily quarter load and coke allowance to buy this song
