Wise Owl School pupil Spiwe Ndebele will launch her career on an exciting note after she caught the attention of award-winning singer Jah Prayzah.
The 14-year-old musician’s album titled “Into You” is being recorded at Jah Prayzah’s JP Studios and it will be released next month.

“I love music. Don’t get it twisted, I have not abandoned my books. I do music during my spare time with the help of my music teacher Mr Nyadenga. I decided to record an album with the assistance of Dr Makirimani who has been with me through thick and thin.
“The album is actually a dedication to her. She has opened doors for me. Meeting Jah Prayzah was a dream come true. He facilitated the recording of at his studio and production of one track with DJ Tamuka,” she said.
She has also done a collaboration with songbird Pauline Gunidza entitled, “Chimanjemanje”.
