JOHANNESBURG - Maskandi prodigy Amabhid'amnyama hit the ground running with a best of both worlds album titled Ekhweni lami. The project was well cooked, whole nine yards.
This album offers great sounds, excellent vocals as well as spot on composition. Still going strong on the market, this once in a blue moon 10 track album was recorded in Johannesburg last year. It offers a variety of tracks that invites all community stakeholders.
Born Bonginkosi Langton Dube aka Ibhid'elimnyama, this young man must surely thank God for the talent He bestowed upon him. He composes his songs and leads the vocals. His album was produced by Amajahamahle (who needs no introduction) and they will continue producing his work.
He featured a KZN based artist Zothile Khumalo in his gospel track Ikhaya lami. The tracks include:
1 Ama social networks
2 Khula mtanami
3 Vuk'uyozama
4 Ekhweni lami
5 Ikhaya lami
6 Imhlola yami
7 Ko Bidi
8 Nomathemba
9 Ngibonga umusa
10 Sizwe sika Mzilikazi
"I'm honoured by the support I get, Amabhid'mnyama are growing in leaps and bounds, some musicians from Lupane, Filabusi and Tsholotsho have joined and are set to appear on the next project. I'm proud because at home I get awesome appreciation and support from the community. I would like to greatly thank Simon Bhidi Ndiweni, (an elder at Chief Bhidi's kraal) for is continued support and guidance. David 'Mjeqezi' Ncube, Smile 'Sezintombi' Sibanda, Fundani 'Loveletter Ncwadiyothando' Ndlovu and the multitudes who buy my music; your support is very much appreciated, I thank you, said Dube.
"I wish to help upcoming artists in the near future as a token of giving back to the community and in honour to those who helped me to my break through. I hope to shoot a DVD after the release of my second album which is expected to be out by September," concluded Ibhid'elimnyama.
Bonginkosi Langton Dube was born in Bhidi, Khezi under Chief Nqaba Bhidi Ndiweni. He grew up following traditional music and had the privilege to have watched groups like ILifa Lendulo Performing Arts and Imbizo when ever they toured his school. His heroes include the late legends UMgqumeni and Bhekumuzi Luthuli.
