BULAWAYO-based female kwaito artiste, Proficience "Kadder" Cadder has released five singles, taken from her upcoming second album.

Kadder started her career in 2006 as a kwaito dancer before she went solo in 2008.

"I used to be a dancer for Khuxman and Street Niggaz, but was scouted by a local kwaito producer Tafara "Mjox" Joga, who wanted to groom a female kwaito artiste. He trained and moulded me into the musician I am today," she said.

She released her debut eight track album in 2008, titled, Planet Kadder Volume One, which was well received by kwaito fans.

Among the singles released are Phez'Kwamanzi, which also has a video, Dlala Bek'Bone, Kule Ndawo, Toleka and Sekukhona Ba?

"I have been on a sabbatical for the last five years, but I took that time to perfect my skills. I am using these singles to re-introduce myself onto the music scene and this time it is going to be better than last time," said Kadder.

She encouraged local fans to support local musicians and desist from preferring South African music.
"Our music is good and fans should give local music a chance and that is the only way musicians can be encouraged," said Kadder.

She said the message in her music is one that encourages fans to celebrate the beauty of life and encourages women to stand up and be counted.

"I am a lady who does not like being sidelined because of my gender, I am always ready for any challenge that comes my way and that is how I have survived in this male dominated sector. Other women can also do it, as long as they put their minds to it," she said.

Apart from music, Kadder gives dance lessons to up-and-coming dancers mainly pantsula and kwaito dancers.

"The full album will be out in December, but for now I want fans to enjoy these tracks, while waiting for the album launch. The other three tracks that make out the whole album are already there, but I am keeping them as a Christmas present for my fans," said Kadder.
