Oliver Mtukudzi ft. Joss Stone - Zimbabwe

In Zimbabwe, we met up with the lovely Oliver Mtukudzi, with his husky voice, a guitar and a drum we sang a song about a lady who lost her husband. It was a pleasure to meet him and spend the evening jamming the night away.
What a great experience we are having collaborating with different people and learning about the diversity and also the similarities of cultures from around the world.
Rest in peace, Oliver. Always loved and never forgotten.

Joss, you are very lucky. Tuku is an absolute legend. My late father loved his music. He got me listening to Tuku from a young age and now I'm passing on the gift to my kids.

Y'all gon have to put a little more respec on my man Oliver Mtukudzi...he's not "a singer called.." he's THE Oliver Mtukudzi, an African Legend 😊 Nonetheless, I've so much more respect for you Joss...going to Zim & singing in the native language. Sounded great

[@msshana3292]

Love this! Oliver Mtukudzi is a legend around the world and is one of thee most respected African musicians to date. Beautiful! and hats off Joss Stone for actually caring and connecting with different people and their music on her tours.

A god with a guitar. A genius in his element. Thanks Joss. You can at least say (when all is said and done), I once briefly stood in the shade of a lion!!!!!!!!

[@tapiwamafuta9067]

3 years on....still listening to this melodious voice. RIP Oliver!!!

[@learnmoreushe3678]

Tuku's trademark voice and guitar, a genius blend by Joss, Mataure's fitting drumbeat, all equal to a masterpiece music product of unparalleled kind.

[@lexicandoo]

I love your way, Joss. You're a different kind of artist. The kind of person the integrates instead of excluding. This is why I follow you. Thanks for bringing us music from the world, and thanks to all your friends from any country where you go. Pls keep on doing it. Never coming to Ireland?

[@gregoryking65]

Joss did right. She went to where it all began and chose a legend unparalleled. If she didn't know then she sure does know now that she was in the presence of greatness.

Joss stone is interviewing a legend- she is talking like she is talking to a come up- she should be more excited but Africans are humble..

[@hugos6444]

I have seen a lot of your World Tour videos Joss. This by far, is the best!

[@doktab]

Never gets old... Forever remebered, legend. Thank you Joss for capturing this moment

[@fabcillo]

Didn't know that the immense Oliver Mtukudzi was not among us anymore, until coming across this video and reading the comments. Curiously just exactly one year after his departure. Maybe a message from musicians' paradise. RIP Oliver, and thank you for this pearl Joss

RIP Oliver Mtukudzi, thank you for teaching the world about our beautiful Zimbabwe. You blessed everyone in the Shona native tongue with melodies and rhythms that will never be forgotten. Despite the struggle Zimbabwe is going through, we shall remember that the struggle bore gifts to the world like your music Sekuru. God bless you 🙏🏾

I was waiting for this for a long time. Thank you Joss for visiting HARARE.

[@Chibhoyi]

Tuku is the best amana i am sinking into the melodies like titanic

[@SteveG123]

Oliver is fantastic. He did a very good live set with The Black Spirits on KEXP. If you like what he's doing it's well worth the time to check that out. Goes without saying that Joss is, as usual, doing such a beautiful job singing with him here.

[@mrs.6546]

Steve Garbarini I agree. her voice is ethereal & yet grounded. total control, and I adore how she lets her spirit fly to meet others where they're at; blending her authentic voice into melded synchrony with theirs, instead of just taking the limelight all for herself.

[@spuddyl9938]

I have probably listened to that live set on KEXP over 200 times now. I find it so much better than his concerts or cd's. It's much more intimate with just him on his guitar, his bass guitarist and the 2 background vocalists. I wish he would release a more intimate cd one day.

[@nyandwijeremie2096]

Don't really understand what they're singing about but they are all brave. The drummer is a professional. Remember my African Continent ✌

[@carloscarpati6736]

Thank you Joss Stone..You know how to combine the voices and music of different ethnic..A perfect combination.. of love for beautiful music..Your voice is sublime..singing with Oliver makes everything more magical..R.I.P. MASTER 😍🎼🎵🎶

Great moment Joscelyn, as a man and musician, if they had asked me to meet a person from the whole music history , I would not have chosen Mozart or Bob Dylan or J.S.Bach, but Oliver. You have been very lucky to have this opportunity.

awww so heartbreaking that two years later after this interview our legend is no more...his songs and his voice we miss....he really was good and after his death l realized it more than ever that there was only one Tuku and no one can ever replace him, reading comments and seeing how he was loved and appreciated beyond Zimbabwe makes me so proud to come from a country that he hailed from. continue resting peacefully samanyanga nzou, the legacy lives on.
