Music lovers are in for a real treat as local celebrated disc jockeys Les Msa and Givergivero have joined forces to work on a special Christmas House single, titled Ndo humbula Venda, to spread the cheer this year. The single will be released at the end of this month (November).
The two DJs enjoy massive fame and regularly feature at major gigs around Vhembe. Givergivero, whose real name is Munei Netshiozwi, hails from Tshitereke village. His last music offering was an extended play (EP), titled Just Believe, that was released in February this year. DJ Les Msa, born Mpho Muswede, grew up at Mianzwi village, near Matangari. His latest full album, Venda lashu, was released in September this year.
Although their latest music renditions are still enjoying airplay on various radio stations, the duo said that they felt they should come together to prepare a Christmas gift for their fans.
Givergivero, who doubles as music compiler for Vhembe FM, said that working with other artists was always good. "DJ Les Msa is one of the highly respected entertainers locally, and I felt that it would add musical value to work with him. Besides that, fans are always looking for something new. It is important to move with the times and feed the fans' appetite. We have both been in the House-music genre for some time and have no doubt that our new single will make our loyal fans happy."
Les Msa added: "Working with Givergivero is a dream come true for me as I have always considered him a role model. His experience and success in the music industry is something I admire greatly. This will definitely boost my own music career, but at the same time also provide entertainment for our fans by putting them in cheerful Christmas spirit."
Ndo humbula Venda will be available in all digital music stores from 30 November.
