Musician and chef Joao ‘JSomething’ da Fonseca had nothing but love to show towards Grammy award-winning artist Zakes Bantwini.
Following Zakes’ history-making Abantu concert, which was held at Cape Town’s DHL stadium, JSomething shared on Instagram that there are “so many memories” in his head that include the Osama hitmaker.
JSomething listed three memories in his post’s caption:
1. Opening for Zakes
“I’ll never forget the MANY occasions we as @micasamusic had to open up for him. Scariest sh*t ever. We had just started and he was FLYING! He had the moves, the energy, the music, the band, and people loved him. I have never been shy of fear, I always embrace it knowing there is a lesson in it. With that said, Zakes definitely inspired me and pushed me to be better at what I do and all I had to do was watch him.”
2. Hard at work
“Every time I’d see him, be it at the airport, the Soul Candi offices, or anywhere really, he would always be with his laptop. Always producing, or at least that’s what I always assumed. This gave me a lot of urgency around how hard I was working at my craft.”
3. Always busy
“I’ve never seen this guy chilling, I mean I always see him relaxed, but always up to something. Always trying, always pushing people around him to do the same.”
The Heavenly Sent crooner concluded by sharing that Zakes played a role in shaping him as well as many other individuals. “This last week at Abantu, I was so inspired to just do it, to see my dreams come alive, especially the big ones that are super scary!”
