We Just Got Nominated | The ZIMA's 2016 Nominees List
Comrades, The Zimbabwe Music Awards recently announced the nominees for this year’s ZIMA’s at a press conference held at the Rainbow Towers in Harare. To everyone’s surprise and possible dismay of others it has come to our attention that the 2 Broke Zimbos have been nominated, We are not sure if these are a cheap copycat outfit or it is indeed us and the judges just didn’t like the look of our original name. In any event we are truly grateful for the recognition and the love from the ZIMA’s.
Check out the full list of nominees below. We are a little confused as to why Bob Marley is nominated for a lifetime award achievement at a Zimbabwean music Awards ceremony
The awards will be held mon the 25th of February at the Harare International Conference Centre at the Rainbow Towers.

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.
