In an interview with Southern Eye Lifestlye, Kasomali said the talent show would provide upcoming artistes with an opportunity to showcase their musical skills.

“I have seen a big gap in Bulawayo and have taken the initiative to promote upcoming artistes,” he said.

“It pains me to see people with great talent having no means of building it. I wish to see someone’s dream come true.”

Twenty finalists will be selected by a panel of judges during auditions.

Sarah Mpofu, popularly known as Tashy on a local drama Amakorokoza and Naboth Rizla from De-Grape-Vine will be the judges.

The competition is free to all and will not focus on any particular genre of music.

The winner of the competition will have a chance to get an album recorded.
