Busiswa reflects on her past

Speaking on Metro FM, Busiswa talked about what she went through to become who she is today.

“I was literally squatting at my friend’s place in Durban. I had dropped out of varsity at that time. I was broke and I was doing a few (odd) jobs. Waitressing and working at a hair salon. You know‚ doing those gigs‚ working at the art centre doing poetry sessions.”

She found herself in Durban and gor introduced to Gqom.

“So when DJ Zinhle was set to release her song‚ My Name Is‚ which was supposed to be an instrumental single. Then Oskido was like‚ ‘nah man‚ where’s that girl… where’s that voice‚'” she said.

Ever since signing under Oskido’s Kalawa Jazmee, the rest has been history for Busiswa.

Grateful

She is forever grateful to the record label for discovering her talent and making her who she is.

“Fortunately they weren’t looking for a pop star. They were looking for someone who is original. Even the people of South Africa are not always looking for a Rihanna or the perfect girl. They are looking for originality and I have tons of that‚” she added.
