Last week social media was thrown into a furore after the release of ZIMURA’s (Zimbabwe Music Rights Association) revised public broadcast fees for venues and locations that play music for the public. Many observers seemed to misunderstand the purpose these fees played and also why ZIMURA was threatening to fine venues.
Dan and Phil managed to contact Mr. Albert Nyathi – Chairman of The ZIURA board and Ms. Polisile Ncube-Chimhini – the Executive Director of ZIMURA to get some answers to questions that many artists and observers had.
The end of another week means the end of all your problems! For now, at least, so we celebrate with a brand new episode of the only podcast to be 100% tariff-free in all countries! Dan & Phil talk YN’s, Zim Hip-Hop and Zimdancehall in the context of international exposure and collaborations, conspiracy theories about tariffs and all-female space crews, and even get some time in for full-on nerdy chats about Direwolves and Marvel. Enjoy!
