Honestly I am posting this song because Kaz is a good friend of mines and I’ve always had a secret crush on her. I had this song on my Odeo podcast for years but people slept on it, so I am reposting it here because there is a larger more appreciating audience here (Thank you for visiting GetMziki).
Kaz better known as Karen Lucas is not only sexy, hot or pretty – the fact is she can blow (sing her heart out). She was part of the South African project fame thing together with my other homeboy Didge. I really feel saddened when I look at what folks did with the artists off that whole initiative. But thats not something within my control right now. I personally used to watch Kaz at Intercontinental as she hosted the Karaoke. She would burst out into like a Whitney Houston – leaving me looking behind the speakers to see if they have hidden some other chile.
She is a powerful singer and has the image to complement her music, in the past her image has been clouded by shady boyfriends and men who wanted to damage her career – but am happy she has stood tall and continues to stand tall. Keep making that good music… Mziki is my best song over the last 5 years am sorry Kaz – it is what it is, so I will keep spreading the love with this one song, until you record something new. I think TIM (innovator) produced this track (Tim used to work at Samawati productions and is one of the people who pushed Bamboo’s music in the past).
I am also posting this song because its titled Mziki – for GetMziki (lol how cheezy is that)

My best Kaz song to date, she has had alot of drama in her life but she has never given up on her dreams. Say what you want to say about her, Kaz can sing.
