Music: Zahara - Loliwe

Today I stumbled upon a beautiful song. The song is called Loliwe and is from the South African singer Zahara. Her voice just beautiful. With her first album "Loliwe" she attained in only 17 days double-platinum and was awarded in May 2012 at the annual South African Music Awards with a total of eight awards, including "Best Female" and "Album of the Year".

Her music is classified loosely as "Afrosoul" and she sings in her native language, Xhosa, as well as in English. Her music has been described as a mixture between the styles that have been popularized by Tracy Chapman, and India.Arie. source Wikipedia

Her stage name Zahara means "blooming flower"; as a child she was known by the nickname Spinach.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I! Have a great Saturday night!
