Get ready, Mzansi! Simphiwe Dana has some new music coming our way very soon. The star signed a lucrative deal with the music giant this week and, alongside the deal, the star will also partner with the label to develop and groom young up-and-coming artists.
Naturally, Simphiwe is ecstatic at the new deal and what this means for her career going forward. “In the past year there was so much I couldn’t talk about. Everything seemed to be taking forever and I had to trust the process. And write and write and write,” the star tells us as she celebrates her new deal. “To offset how heavy my spirit can get, my songs are testimony to this, I try and keep life light around me. I love to joke and laugh to keep that ever present depression away. I’m happy to say on my birthday that I have finally signed that contract which took me months and months to negotiate.”
The songstress adds that “I also have some other surprises for you in store. But I’ll say, this contract does not only enable me to deliver a stellar album, but we also are doing a separate partnership where I will identify, develop and groom new artists plus those artists who never got a proper chance during the production of their work. So, in a sense, I’m about to become a big aunty to a few choice artists of my own choosing. This is the best birthday present for me. I’m thankful to the universe and my ancestors for looking out for this gift.”
This is super exciting and we can’t wait to hear what Simphiwe has up her sleeve on this album.
