Mokhethis shares she only has international awards

She continued her heartbreaking interview by adding that she has international awards in Tanzania, London and the United States. Zaza questions the award system in Mzansi, saying it does not make any sense to her.

She admitted that it makes her feel unappreciated. So much to the point where she does not want to submit for the awards.

“It's very painful to feel unappreciated at home. It hurts. I don't know how the people who get them, get them. But they get them. I made peace with it and decided not to enter again because it hurt. It makes you feel like you are not enough. I decided to make music for the people and not be nominated for awards.”
