The music outfit’s marketing manager Nkosi Masuku confirmed the development in a statement seen by Southern Eye Lifestyle.
“Defined House based in Bulawayo has officially entered into an agreement to work with DJ Pepsi.
“DJ Pepsi was impressed by our 10-minute performance at last year’s Kalawa Homecoming Festival,” reads the statement.
“We will be working with DJ Pepsi on his upcoming album to be released later on during the year. DJ Pepsi will also assist us with the production of our debut album which is also due for release later this year.
“Teaming up with DJ Pepsi is already proving to be a great move as he is introducing and connecting us with the right people in the global music industry such as, Bruce “Dope” Sebitlo who is a Kalawa Jazmee Records sound engineer involved in the production of many hits by the legendary Brothers of Peace which he and Oskido formed as well as many other hits released by Kalawa Jazmee Records.”
The Bulawayo-based house outfit stole the hearts and soul of the South Africa celebrated music gurus during its 10 minutes performance at the Kalawa Home Coming Shows held in the City of Kings and Queens in December last year.
