Local songbird Zonke Dikanas new album is a true testimony on how she has reinvented herself as an artist and shows her growth within the music industry.
Zonke has been the voice on many house tracks and has released albums overseas but her latest offering Ina Ethe is one of the best albums she has released so far! Not only is it receiving recognition but it has one of the best local tracks listened to by many,'feelings'
She revealed that it was hard for people to actually follow her music because she was not really well-known in the entertainment industry," I'm used to being a back up singer for many artists but was not featured in most". this has not stopped Zonke from releasing such a great and selling albums. "I'm grateful and happy that I'm finally being recognised".
Her first hit single Jik'izinto caused quite a buzz on local radio giving the audience a reason to want more. It is safe to say that Zonkes hit single FEELINGS is making its mark within the music industry. With her positiveness its about time that her talent shines.
On her latest album Ina Ethe, Zonke Dikana is a far cry from the woman on her debut album Life, Love and Music, released in 2007 under the kwaito label Kalawa Jazmee - which is home to artists including Professor and Oskido. This album has shown growth and a better understanding on the level of work that is expected from her.
Dikana canbe a role model to many. She started at the bottom and worked her way up again even though she wasn't known she never gave up on her talent and focused on her real passion which is music. so what are your views on her new album and your take in the kind of genre she sings?
Indeed Zonke is a young successfull growing musician whom I also believe that she won't end up doing bad things
