Simphiwe Dana speaks exclusively to Briefly News

Briefly News had a chat with Simphiwe Dana, who is looking to enter a new phase in her music journey.

"My goals for this phase of my music career include continued artistic growth, exploring new musical styles, connecting with a wider audience, and to continue creating more meaningful and impactful music.

Simphiwe shed light on her projects in the last two years.

"I've just presented 2 brilliant and sold-out concerts in 2022 & 2023 at the Joburg Theatre. The project was called MOYA, and it was well-received by my audience, and there are still many great things to come from that. I've been performing around the country, and now I look forward to my Joy of Jazz performance on 30 September. It's going to be something special."

According to the award-winning artist, music and breakfast have a correlation, that is to bring families together.

"Music and breakfast play a significant role in bringing families together. Breakfast is often considered a shared mealtime, where families gather in the morning to start their day. It provides an opportunity for bonding, conversation, and quality time. Music can enhance the atmosphere, creating a joyful and harmonious environment that can further strengthen the family bond and create lasting memories."

Simphiwe is confident that she will beat Dumza when they have their breakfast showdown.

"I know I am a very creative and affirmed cook. At least some of my guests have told me so. So, I'm rather enthused by the opportunity to play around with these breakfast ingredients presented to us by White Star and Weet-Bix. With Glen and the team behind me, I'm quite confident that Team Dumza doesn't stand a winning chance at all."
