Happy Birthday to the Zimbo Jam

Hey you, it’s been one crazy year. Shows, interviews, trips, thousands of words written, thousands of pictures taken. No money, just faith, just an urge to capture it all and tell it to the world. The sweetest Jam is this- to be able to do that which we are here for. If that it is, then may the jam go on and on and on!

Happy birthday.

Vote for Rumbi’s film!

A scene from Asylum by Rumbi Katedza

I think it’s always fantastic when a Zimbabwean does well at international level and whatever support we can give as a nation we should.

Here’s a great opportunity for us to support a talented daughter of Zimbabwe. Rumbi Katedza’s film, Asylum, is up for an award (RCI Migrations People’s Choice Award) and can only win if we vote.

I’ve watched the film- over my dial up connection- and I LOVED it. It’s just under 5 minutes long so it won’t take much of your time. I may be a bit biased but I know where I’m putting my X.

Is this rigging? Stop asking so many questions. Log on to the website, watch it and decide for youself! Danke!

A Lesson from the CBZ A Academy

A Academy judges 2008

When I walked into the HICC at around 1100hrs on Saturday (4th October 2008) the first sight that caught my eye was a teenage girl sitting on one of the sofas in the foyer, her head buried in her hands, sobbing loudly. I immediately understood.

She had wanted to make it through to the next round of A Academy but had been unsuccessful.

^ The judges Albert Nyathi, Imelda Mahaka, Willis Wa-Taffy (all this time I thought it was Wataffibut someone told me it was spelt that way. Thanks Sharon- I hope you’re right because ka…) and Admire Taderera (more…)
