Asnath Mulaudzi is a gospel artist who seems to know and understand that artists need to seize the opportunity while their stars are still shining brightly.

The release of her latest offering, Ndi Naledzi, comes at a time when similarity in sound and style has stolen the hearts of many singers and musicians. “Even though I am presently using my old studio, I try to work with different producers to avoid creating the sounds and same level of quality which the other in-house artists seem to achieve,” says the 41-year-old musician.

Asnath states that she feels that music should appeal to the sense of hearing before it can find a place in the listener's mind and win that listener's heart.

This musician won the hearts of many people with the release of her earlier album, Mbilu Yanga, which was followed by the DVD of the same name. “The 'pirates' made a lot of money out of that DVD and that painful experience forced me to include the song Ama ten-ten (Stop piracy) in my new project,” she adds.

Some of the stand-out songs in this album include Ntate ke nwana wa hao, Adam, Jesu vho mu vhamba and Jesus is coming. On this album, she tried to use a new style in terms of sound and rhythm. “I use mbaqanga melodies and a bit of bass found in XiTsonga traditional music,” she explains. “My aim in doing so is to dish out a different menu – and of the same quality that I am known of – to my fans.”

Asnath currently stays in Lwamondo village.
