Few people would bat an eye if you told them the greatest kwaito album is TKZee’s Halloween.
With hits like Dlala Mapantsula, Mambotjie and We love this place the album soundtracked South Africa’s post-94 moment and helped foreshadow a new millennium when it was released in 1998.
Twenty years later with over 200,000 records sold and 4 SAMAs Halloween is a landmark in South African music. On Friday, 26 October East Coast Radio will pay homage to TKZee and their iconic album.
In an exclusive in-depth conversation, East Coast Urban host Thandolwethu and Bongani Mtolo of East Coast Drive talk to TKZee’s Zwai Bala and honorary member Sbu MaLawyer.
