Her collaboration with Young Gemini brings together two accomplished female artists from neighbouring African music markets.
With “What’s Happening,” Young Gemini continues to expand her musical reach while giving audiences a preview of 5 YEARS, a project celebrating her journey, growth and development as an artist.
The collaboration also highlights the growing connection between Zimbabwean and South African hip-hop, reinforcing the presence of female voices shaping the future of African music.
