  1. If you had not mentioned divine tribe i would be thinking its these rhumba chaps from congo, look at the saging of trousers.That doesnt look like serious repentant christians.Those boys are jst minting money from unsuspecting believers

  2. imwe sure there is that ka song at “NAKAPELELE” which i used to hear play in Big brother house. Since then i have never heard of that song and yet we still hear of other African song that where being played in the same house(especially Nigerian songs) on S.A radio, channel O and even TRACY TV. That ka Zambian song is a very nice song and deserve international recognition

  3. Gospel music in zambian sure has changed every gospel artists in in autotune and dressing like soulja boy. Why is it that all the yo ballyz are not doing gospel?  Something does not sit right with me and i prefer the old school amalumbo when it comes to gospel music. This all lets dress in faux gucci and sunsha the bokoshi for the lord in our skinny jeans and chinese supraz just doesn’t sit right with me. It’s like those 90’s gospel where rhumba became so popular where women were girating their wombs so as to show how they love the ‘lord’

  4. Am so proud of guys…. Continue the good work and keep the fire for Christ.
    Am impressed with the rout that Zambian music taking!!!!!!!!!!!! It reminds me
    Of the days we started building the Nigerian Music industry, Go for it Divine tribe and
    May God Richly bless the works of your hands….
