Freshly Ground 'Nomvula ' live on eXpresso

From 28 October to 9 December 2011, the country's premier afro-pop outfit, Freshlyground, will be making things happen when they hit the road for an old school nationwide tour. Dubbed The Freshlyground 10 Year Birthday Love No Hate Tour, the 29-date showcase will see the band taking their award-winning afro-pop sound from large cities to small towns, in celebration of their 10 year anniversary and very own "Love No Hate" campaign. They join us live in studio this morning to perform some of their most loved hits from the past 10 years.

[@LaaDiosaa]

It sounds the same as the CD wow she is really gifted!

[@toddcharry]

Someone did translate it on you tube. Its the story of her mother passing away when she was a child and her father raising the kids alone. Its a very moving song, always makes me tear up. It is a beautiful song. I love this band, I wish they would come back to the states.

[@jacobzaranyika9334]

Thank you for support
This is how history is made and written.
I am African. They don't know how to deal with us.
We are a proud people.
They are about to learn how proud we are.
No more decency. It doesn't work with people that don't see you like a fellow human being.
