    I am originally from Tanzania. I got to know Tuku really well to the point where I drove him and his wife around Toronto in 2018. About 6 weeks, I went to see Ladysmith Black Mambazo in concert near Toronto. After the show i went to see the group in the dressing room. I told them I was a friend of Tuku - they all got around me and started to sing Neria in the dressing room It brought tears to my eyes.

    I really regret not listening to Oliver Mtukudzi's music more when he was alive. May he rest in peace. A while back I was at a record store (in the United States) I was browsing world music and saw the album "Tuku Music". I had no idea who Oliver Mtukudzi was at the time, but I wanted to broaden my horizons and try something new. I really do love his music, I sometimes put that album on while I'm sitting around on Sunday mornings. I later found out my dad is also a fan of Oliver.
    I heard the news of what happened to him and really thought about things. Oliver seemed like a really nice person, and I wish I knew more about him. I would have loved to meet him, but I hope he's resting well now. Thank you Oliver.

      @ Leo Spencer, you don't know how right you are about this legend of song and dance. Dr Oliver Mtukudzi was a gentle giant who lived by the tenets of all the best religious teachings. He was a down to earth man; kind to a fault. When he was starting his career and living in his parents' house in Old Highfield, Harare, Zimbabwe, my friends and I would go and watch him practising on the verandah of the house. We were welcome any time. Later, when Tuku had become a household name, he started a project of finding and financing young bands that were just starting; one of them was called Pengaudzoke. Dr Oliver Mtukudzi led by example and was principled. He was never scared of anyone - and some politicians in that country (Zimbabwe) are SCAAAAARY - but he always admonished them through Shona idioms in his music. His passing was a personal loss to me, but much more than that, the whole world has lost a fine human being. R.I.P. gwenyambira.

The film was financed by Norad witch is the norwegian national help organisation. They wanted to support african artist with money so they could give the african people an african story, told filmed and published by only africans. The idea is that nobody can make a better image of africa than africans. Norway was a colony for more years than any other country ever was a colony, and we never had a colony our self. We got our freedom in 1905. That is the reason Norway understand the africans need for freedom, and to tell their own story. With the deepest respect for all africans, you do that good, better than any other people.

    I'm sitting here in my living room trying to fend off a sore throat with home remedies and Lady Blacksmith popped into my mind. I used to listen to them quite often years ago. I was born and raised in Jamaica, but I am so proud of my African roots. Even did my DNA ancestry and found out I have 96.7% African DNA primarily of Yoruba and Esan people, but all of Africa is mine. Anyway, searching for Lady Blacksmith brought me to this and after just a few seconds I realized I have listened to this many times before. Such a beautiful song. When you come from the soul the language heard by the natural ears is of much I significance. Sir Oliver, the universe now sings of Neria. As we say on Jamaica (and as I do not believe the soul sleeps in death) I say walk good mi bredda 🙏🏿😊

It's so wonderful listening to this beauty of a song as an adult now. Viva Africa ❤️❤️
