Following the release of her latest single titled, Shoni Vuruke, local gospel artist, Kebadile Wasenda, famed as Kaybee, has followed that up with a music video.

The song is part of her six songs from her Extended Play (EP) released last year. In an interview, the Sepopa-born singer told Arts&Culture that the song is special and reminds her of her spiritual journey. “The song is special to me and reminds me of my journey that through it all, God has never left my side. "He preserved me, carried me through the seasons of life and gave me strength to carry on to to-date and (2 Corinthians 4: 8-10) it is through God that I am the woman that I am. He is the best thing that ever happened to me,” she said.

Kaybee started her musical journey in 2008 with a debut album called Forever. She dropped her second album in 2014 called Wuparo while the third called Ruhakitho followed in 2018. Shoni Vuruke, which has six songs, was released in 2024. Other songs in the EP are Sing Praises, Best Thing, Only You, Masa a Sele and Tswelela. Kaybee explained that she composed and recorded at a time when she was sick. She says the songs helped her heal. Kaybee’s EP was recorded at Simba Records in Gaborone and was mastered in Harare, Zimbabwe. She composed all the songs except Shoni Vuruke, which is an old hymn. “When I remember what the Lord has done, I decided to sing it in my mother tongue, being Hambukushu language. I started singing at church in 2002. Doing Gospel music is warfare on its own, and you experience constant battles. For me, it is a passion and was never about money, which I believe is the reason I still stand. Even if one person buys my music, it is a victory because I do something I love and write songs about the God I know not I hear about,” she said.

Gov't must empower DCEC urgently

As the new Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) government takes charge, it must act decisively to equip the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Crime (DCEC) with the tools, laws, and resources needed to combat graft. The time for half-measures is over. DCEC Director-General, Botlhale Makgekgenene’s, recent address to the Public Accounts Committee paints a stark picture. Over five years, leadership instability, chronic underfunding and weak...
