Gazza releases first official single for upcoming album
Namibians set to Get It on Tonight with Gazza
Gazza is set to cement his status as arguably Namibia’s most celebrated artist with the release of his new single, Get it on Tonight. The music sensation, who has broken every local music record imaginable throughout his illustrious career, will release his 11th album, with the single on which he features sultry saxophone queen Suzy Eises, is the first single from the upcoming album. The musical chemistry between Gazza and his longtime producer and friend, Samy-lee Jones also shines through on the track. Gazza has previously worked with Samy-lee Jones on hits like My Boeta and Tufikeapa. Gazza, who is the brains behind Gazza Music Productions (GMP) has hinted that the album has a very reconstructing theme, with the multiple award winning artist playing around with new sounds, to be expected from someone who has continued to create his own climax by setting new standards every time he is on a record.
The combination of Gazza and Suzy Eises will likely come as a surprise to many, with the two set to release an explosive sound, which will be as heart-warming and sensual as it is stunning. Get It On Tonight is a sensual feel good song, with a jazzy urban feel. Gazza’s vocals coupled with Suzy’s passion on the sax, creates an alluring musical masterpiece that Gazza is very excited to share.
Gazza was tightlipped about details around the new album, but hinted that it will be dropped sooner than most Namibian’s expect. He however revealed that the album which like all other Gazza albums, will deliver soundtracks for all December parties, includes 18 tracks with a number of exciting collaborations, including artists from beyond the Namibian borders. One such collaboration is that with dancehall diva N’yanda, the one half of Brick and Lace. Another noteworthy collaboration would be the collaboration with South African Hip Hop sensation, Emtee. An ecstatic Gazza highlighted that the platform he intends to create is one that recognises and appreciates true talent and package it for an international platform just like the deal he has established for GMP Label through Universal Records.
Gazza, who shows no signs of slowing down, said he has big plans for Namibian music. “It’s not just about me anymore; it’s about finding opportunities for Namibian musicians. There is talent here, talent beyond measure, our local artists just need the right platform and opportunities and they will shine, they will step up. My aim now is to ensure that there is enough opportunities for as many Namibian artists as possible and take our music global,”he said.
Around this time last year, he created a YouTube frenzy, when his music video, Kuna’mkweni reached over 70 000 views in less than two weeks, asked whether his thousands of die-hard fans can expect a music video for Get It On Tonight, Gazza hinted that a treat might just be in store. “Exciting things are coming. The new album, new big projects for GMP, all I can say is, we are going international, these are exciting times and I remain thankful for all the support over the years. The future looks bright for GMP and Namibian music,”he says.
Get It On Tonight is all available on all local radio stations as from today and it is also available on GMP’s official YouTube page.
