HARARE - Top Zimbabwean kwaito producer, Oscar Mdlongwa, aka DJ Oskido, is leading a high-powered team of kwaito and house musicians to the United Kingdom for their maiden tour.
Oskido will headline a Valentines Day tour also featuring hit-maker, Big Nuz, and house music juggernaut, Bujo Mujo.
The Big Nuz trio of Mandla Mampintsha Maphumulo, Mzi Danger Tshomela and Sibusiso R Mashesha Khomo are currently ruling the South African music scene with back-to-back platinum-selling albums carried by the hits Ubala and Umlilo, all of them produced by Oskido.
Oskido and Bujo Mujo kick-off the tour at the West Indian Centre in Leeds on Friday, February 12, before joining up with the Durban kwaito kings on Valentines Day at Londons Stratford Rex.
Zimbabwean radio DJ, Ezra Tshisa Sibanda, a spokesman for the promoters said: It is now accepted as a fact that Big Nuz saved kwaito.
They are a super group who have come up with a new sound, and they certainly offer a welcome break from the monotonous Mtukudzi-Mafikizolo-Malaika UK tours.
