Zimbabwean cultural music icon Jeys Marabini says his recent tour of South Africa has unlocked new international opportunities as he builds momentum for his upcoming European tour in July.
Marabini described the South African trip as a major breakthrough in expanding Zimbabwean music across borders, noting the warm reception he received from various media houses.
“I am very excited about my trip to South Africa. I had a good opportunity to be on radio and television stations, and I was warmly received. I appreciate that they love and respect Zimbabwean music,” he said.
During the visit, he featured on several prominent platforms, including Khaya FM, Thobela FM, Africa Channel and One Africa TV—exposure he says broadened his horizons both professionally and personally.
“Travelling is learning, so I will take those lessons back home and apply them,” he added.
Marabini is now gearing up for a European tour scheduled for July, with performances lined up in Austria, Germany and the Czech Republic.
“I also spoke about my upcoming Europe tour, and they are excited that Africa is being well represented in music. As a Zimbabwean artist, I am proud to showcase my country. They love Zimbabwean cultural music because it represents our identity,” he said.
He also revealed that he is working on a collaboration with fellow Zimbabwean artist Lewie Mhlanga, whom he met during his South Africa tour.
