Motswako this Monday (22 November, 2010):
A shot of Simphiwe by Gallo records for her album Kulture Noir.Tonight's show looks at Simphiwe Dana’s rise to stardom: a story of a young woman - not recognized at home at first - but celebrated overseas, who knew that she had the gift of music, particularly of singing in an African language.
Penny delves into her story as a live performer, a song writer, and a dedicated cultural activist - in many senses the quintessential African renaissance woman.
Motswako is on SABC2 on Mondays at 21h30.
