Last week social media was thrown into a furore after the release of ZIMURA’s (Zimbabwe Music Rights Association) revised public broadcast fees for venues and locations that play music for the public. Many observers seemed to misunderstand the purpose these fees played and also why ZIMURA was threatening to fine venues.
Dan and Phil managed to contact Mr. Albert Nyathi – Chairman of The ZIURA board and Ms. Polisile Ncube-Chimhini – the Executive Director of ZIMURA to get some answers to questions that many artists and observers had.
Early drop to make up for the missed week! The Twimbos are back with a fresh new episode, featuring frontline accounts from Nitefreak at Hinde, in-depth reports from Kigali, expert analysis of Sakhile Dube and Chidimma Adetshina's performances at Miss Universe, and shrewd diplomacy in their takes on the South African Mining standoff and El Salvador's gang prison. Enjoy!
