One of my favorite South African singers Simphiwe Dana has finally returned on the music scene with her long awaited single titled; 'Nzima', which serves as the first offering from her upcoming fourth album. The song is heavily inspired by the Marikana massacre on 16th August 2012, where thirty-four people were shot dead and seventy-eight others were wounded.
"Although inspired by the Marikana tragedy - ‘NZIMA’ - which is being released as a single to broadcast stations today – the song is drawn from centuries of pain and violence, and is essentially a prayer for a people that have had a history of violence inflicted upon them" says Simphiwe Dana.
