VIDEO: Hope Masike – Because Of You

Mbira princess Hope Masike is in the next of the Zim Animated series of music videos supported by the Culture Fund of Zimbabwe.

The release comes straight after her performance at on the ZOL Main Stage show on the closing night of the Harare International Festival of the Arts alongside the legendary Salif Keita.

The take, according to lead director on this piece of animation is tattoos being more African rather than the ones we see out there which tend to take from and live in other cultures.

It is typical Masike in that it dares to be daring in the context of Africa, redefining the use of art forms in modern spaces.
