This album follows in the footsteps of "Adziambei Band"'s comeback album which won a Tshima award last year. HaMavhele is proving to be a popular spot for visiting artists from Venda. The last few weeks have seen the likes of Zozo, Colbert and Tshigomboza mesmerising fans at the venue. This weekend promises not to be different.

Congradulations to Sikheli Junior, Satma award winner

We would like to congradulate Sikheli Junior for scooping the award, Best Tshivenda, on the 2013 version of the SATMA awards which were held over the weekend (04-05 October 2013). Ri ri halala! He was nominated for his hit album, Ladzani Shango.

IT’S A HERO’S PARTY

The long-awaited live album by Colbert Mukwevho is finally out. Titled ‘Lion & Son O’ Lion Live in Johannesburg’, the album is one of the best to come out of this continent. The double disc album feature P.Postman (Percy) as well as the ever-green Junior, P.Postman’s younger brother, who did a classical ‘One in a Millionnaire’ in dedication to his dad’s birthday.

 The album was recorded in Bassline, Johannesburg last year. It was indeed a hero’s party when Harley, as Colbert is famously known, dished out the people’s favourites tunes on the night. The album contains songs such as ‘Nda mu fara’, ‘Ndo takala hani’ ‘Heroes Party’, which you can hear the fans singing along to loudly. I must say, P.Postman’s perfomance was out of this world as he blessed the energetic fans to a night to remember.   

 muvenment is equally excited about the launch and is giving away the Double Disc album to two very blessed fans. All you have to do is answer the simple question and, voila, the autographed CD might be on your way.

 

Competition question: WHICH SONG PERFORMED DURING THE LIVE RECORDING WAS SO IRIE THAT THE CROWD CONTINUED TO SING AFTER IT HAD ENDED, PROMPTING HARLEY TO GIVE AN ENCORE TO THE PARTY?

Colbert 'Harley' Mukwevho DVD Launch

History was made last year when Colbert “Harley” Mukwevho & Family recorded their first ever live DVD at Bassline in Johannesburg. The venue was full, the atmosphere electrifying, and the performance out of this world. I saw the preview of the DVD on youtube and believe you me, this is a must have for all “Harley” fans. The sound, the picture, the music and the people were just too perfect and I can’t wait for the SAMA’s (South African Music Awards) to see if this time they can scoop an award for best DVD of the year. I hope I’m not the only one, but I can’t wait to see ‘Hero’s Party’ which I’m sure is going to be one of the DVD’s highlights. The DVD will be launched on the 30^th of March 2013 at the same venue, Bassline (Newtown, Johannesburg).

 

Fans have been eagerly waiting for the long overdue DVD. Now, come the 30^th of March all this will change as “Harley” will launch the DVD titled Lion & Son O’ Lion Tour Live DVD. “Harley”, whose career span well over three decades will be launching a DVD which will surely put his reggae music and his band on the global market. The DVD features Colbert’s sons Percy (aka P.Postman) and the young, ever-energetic Junior. Junior, to the amazement of all present, beautifully performed Bob Marley’s hit ‘How many times’.

 

A big argument is going on that reggae music has no place in today’s society. I do not engage myself in such, and I’m sure a lot of people will stop once they get the copy of the DVD. Reggae music is very much alive and still relevant. Colbert has never disappointed his fans, I doubt he ever will. From his early years with the Comforters, being Harley & the Rasta Family, now Colbert Mukwevho & Family, he has produced hits, anthems, hyms etc. He is a legend, Period! Remember ‘Hero’s party with Brenda, ‘Soon and very soon’? Remember ‘Hoyo wanu o naka’, ‘Tshigotshanama’? Remember Why??, Mmbwa I do lammbwa? Remember Senzo Mthethwa’s ‘Worshipping your love’? That’s Colbert ‘Harley’ Mukwevho for you. South Africans, embrace what’s yours. I used to sit and think that I should have been born during Bob Marley’s era, and yesterday I realised that there are kids like me who would wish they were born during ‘Harley’s era. I am living my dream now, and one day I’ll sit and brag about being there when history was unfolding.

 

To Colbert’s management, ndi ri mishumo yavhudi ro I vhona. A ni ri tshileli!
