CAPETONIAN BUNTU JOBELA WINS VIRGIN MOBILE SHARE THE BEAUTY OF VOICE COMPETITION
Buntu from Delft South,
Cape Town was selected from over 150 entries, by a judging panel which included
members of the YFM music department, popular YFM breakfast show host DJ Ankle
Tap - who launched the competition together with Sir Richard Branson - and
Virgin Mobile representatives.
This multitalented rapper, poet, song
writer and model immersed himself in the music scene in 2003 by joining
Delft-based hip hop group D.S.O. He has since travelled with the group
performing around South Africa at events including Splash Jam, the Grahamstown
Arts Festival and HipHopkaslam at the Baxter Theatre among others.
According to
Buntu winning the Virgin Mobile Share the Beauty of Voice competition
is another exciting step in his journey. ‘’I have a passion for creating
and sharing great music and believe in living my life to its full potential
with a personal motto that keeps me motivated - be inspired,
uphile ubomi bakho,” exclaims Buntu.
As the winner
of the Virgin Mobile Share the Beauty of Voice competition,
Buntu will now go on to shoot a professionally produced music video featuring
one of his original tracks, but not before spending a day with the YFM team.
This session will offer him more insight into music production, the
behind-the-scenes workings of a commercial radio station and what it takes to
get your track play listed. He will also receive a brand new smartphone
with a two-year airtime contract compliments of Virgin Mobile.
The Virgin Mobile Share
the Beauty of Voice competition, which launched mid-December 2014, ran
for just over two months offering aspiring singers, across the country, an
opportunity to further their music career and get their voice
noticed. The competition tapped into Virgin Mobile’s V2V proposition,
free on-net Virgin to Virgin calls, for all new contract, top-up and
prepaid customers,
motivating fans to talk as often as they like at no extra cost.
