Tevin Campbell tweets in Sesotho, announces potential SA tour dates
The American singer-songwriter, who made it big in the 90s, left his fans in a spin after he tweeted in Sesotho recently.
If you knew and met me in the 90s, I was obsessed with many musicians, but one in particular was Tevin Campbell. His smooth sounds were enough to melt anyone's heart - mine included.
I can probably still sing every song of his. The now 42-year-old was born in Waxahachie, Texas and got audiences on their feet everywhere when he hit the music scene hard in the 90s.

Apparently, it seems that there are a good few of his fans right here in Mzansi. The 'Can We Talk' singer recently tweeted in Sesotho and tweeps lost their minds.
"Kea u rata SA!!! Ke u bone ka likhoeli tse peli!!! (I hope this is right)," he said, which loosely translates to, 'I love you SA. I'll see you in two months'.

His fans lost their minds, saying that he deserves honorary citizenship and have asked that he changes his name to Thato Khambule. Haha!
All I know is that if his tour does happen, I am definitely going to be there. His security guards may need to hold me back from running up on stage, however.
To take you back in time to 1993, listen to my favourite track of his, 'Can We Talk', below:
