Star FM listeners were at the weekend pleased to tune in to the sound of Kelvin “Kedza” Sifelani during the Sunday afternoon show. The United Kingdom-based radio personality who returned home last week on family business had a whale of a time on Star FM, Zimbabwe’s leading commercial radio which broadcasts live across the country as well as streaming live on www.starfm.co.zw.
Arguably one of the lyrical masters and a seasoned presenter on radio, Kedza’s unmistakable voice got listeners hooked to the show which airs between 12 noon and 3pm. An elated Kedza, who is also affectionately known as the “Soul Supreme S”, yesterday took to Facebook and posted his pictures behind the microphone at Star FM studios along Simon Mazorodze Road in Harare.
“The Sunday Soul Convention 12-3pm (Zimbabwe time). A less than modest expose of Soul on FM countrywide, also available internationally on the Tune in Radio app or log on www.starfm.co.zw,” he posted.
Kedza’s return to radio was met with excitement among soul music lovers who are into old skool and urban music.
Chris Dube said: “The chief executive of the soul movement, big up my all time favourite DJ SOUL SUPREME KICK A** SIFELANI”.
Another big fan Pearson Trevor Mtemeri said: “If Soul Supreme is back now we talking . . .” while Samuel Yonah wrote: “Am definitely feeling this!”
MaDube Chishongo asked:” Kelvin are you back for real . . . Yippiieeee”.
Comfort “Mbofs” Mbofana who is the “Breakfast Club “host and programmes manager at the station confirmed Kedza was around for the next two weeks.
“He’s here sorting out his father’s estate so we thought it would be nice to have him on the station.
“He is also going to help us with information around the world when he goes back to the United Kingdom so, yah, we hope to continue working with him,” Mbofana said.
During his days at the then Radio 3 now Power FM, Kedza used to rock listeners on the “Saturday Late Night Soul Selections” which he lovingly called the “Soul Movement”.
He was home for his annual holiday last year and he played at a number of hangouts in Harare taking his fans down the memory lane dishing out a mix of rare grooves and soul music.
