WATCH | Kea Zawadi's take on 'Tobetsa' is the content that Focalistic signed up for

Kea Zawadi is beaming with pride after getting a nod from amapiano star Focalist for her rendition of his hit song Tobetsa. 

The former YFM presenter shared a video of her singing an acoustic version of Tobetsa with the caption “The dream is to perform Tobetsa LIVE with a band.”

Speaking to TshisaLIVE, Kea said she had grown fond of flipping hip hop, amapiano and house songs to RnB covers.

“I've always enjoyed taking a song and switching up into something new. I've done a couple of amapiano covers before and turned them into RnB covers. Tobetsa is a big song right now. So I thought, why not? I was elated to see that tweet by Focalistic. I think Foca is a musical giant so to get that nod really meant a lot.”

Last September, Kea ventured into the music scene with her debut body-of-work, a five-track RnB EP titled Love High.

“I'm a perfectionist. Perhaps it's not always the most positive thing but I take pride in the work that I do. And when I execute, I give my all. I think because of this, it has led me to pushing back my music because I was so busy with TV roles and my radio career.

“Being here, it made so much sense to finally give the world the truest essence of me, which is my music. Everything I do stems from my love for music.”

Speaking of her career since making the transition into the industry, Kea said though it has been a rollercoaster she was happy to have finally fulfilled her lifelong dream.

“With any transition you're bound to face some ups and downs. But I'm the happiest behind a mic. So whatever comes, I'm taking my music all the way.”
