OUR VERY OWN HAS A VERY TOUCHING BACKGROUND. 🥺
Mwila ‘Slapdee’ Musonda
Born 27 April 1987 in Zambia, Slapdee is a Zambian hip hop and rap musician. Having won multiple awards since his debut in 2006, he is often regarded one of the pioneers of Zambian hip-hop.
Slapdee was raised by his aunt, after losing his parents and brother. Because of his aunt’s career, he moved around often, even attending schools in Botswana and South Africa. During his high school years, Slapdee returned to Zambia where he befriended musician Hamoba, and the two started making music together
Only kids count sheep to fall asleep. Count your debts, your mistakes, your heartache and cry yourself to sleep like a grownup then wake up early to fix it all Mwila says
