There is no doubt that Vee Mampeezy is very talented. His success over the years makes him arguably Botswana’s biggest music artist. From his first album in 2002, Vee Mampeezy has demonstrated seriousness in his career to be where he is today. He has dished out hits after another in the years gone by which catapulted him to stardom. Notwithstanding his success over the years, Vee Mampeezy has in the recent past years also endured tough criticism from fans. Some sections felt that the Taku Taku hit maker no longer has what it takes to deliver goods. While others challenged him to go back to his original and old style, there was also a general feeling that maybe it is high time he considered retiring. They argued that he has lost his creative spark as such appealed to him to retire and stick to just producing.
But Vee Mampeezy has never let criticism go to his head and dampen his vision. He always found a way to reignite his music and get a fair share of the love from the music fans. He has always worked his socks off to pull one back when he has been written off completely. This was evidenced when he dropped hit songs such as Baba, then Siyazenzela with Dan Tshanda Sumuka ft Jah Prayzah and Dumalana ft Dr Tawanda. Just last year, Vee Mampeezy was at the receiving end of yet another criticism over the song he did with popular South African singer Makhadzi. The song titled Beke le Beke was one of the hits on Makhadzi’s album and it immediately caught the attention of the public. However, there was general opinion about Vee Mampeezy’s verse, as many people argued that he failed Makhadzi in the song. Many people were of the view that he nearly ruined a very good song. But Vee Mampeezy’s latest single released on Tuesday is already trending, a sign that it could turn out to be a hit. It has been over a long time since the Letlhale hitmaker got so much praise over his new music.
With the song, it seems as if he has worked his magic again to charm his way back into his fans’ hearts. Many people have taken to social media to congratulate him for coming up with a nice song, which they said it is a first in a long time. Within a day of the song’s release, comments on his Facebook page had reached over 700, while reactions clocked over 7,000 with close to 120 shares. By the look of things, there is a revived love for Vee Mampeezy’s music again. The song sounds refreshing.
There are also several videos on social media of people jiving to the new tune.
Although we cannot say for sure if Vee Mampeezy has found his mojo back with the Untouchable single, or its just DJ Tira’s song, but it definitely shows that he is not ready to give up just yet. At least with this one, Vee Mampeezy is likely to get a well-deserved break from his critics and make them dance to his tune again.
