SOUTH AFRICA-BASED music promoter and actor Munya “Munya Touch” Jeranyama has urged the corporate world to support artistes to promote local talent and the growth of the arts industry.
Munya Touch, who partnered rising South African DJ Ceega Wa Meropa in doing live DJ mixes on Facebook, said he tried to engage local corporates in a move that would have seen Zimbabwean artistes featuring, but none was forthcoming.
“I initially wanted to work with a Zimbabwean artist with support from the corporate world, but none was willing to sponsor.
The youthful promoter told NewsDay Life & Style that sponsoring virtual events by artistes would help address their financial woes during this lockdown period.
Zimbabwean corporates should invest in our own talent.
