Kataleya and Kandle credit Vinka for reviving their career after management split

Two years ago, Kataleya and Kandle were a hot topic in town following their split from their parent management label, Theron Music.

The period, which they have often described as “depressing,” seemed destined to rob them of their promising music career until Vinka stepped in with a collaboration that returned them to the music charts.

“We reached out to her, sent a few songs, but she didn’t like them. So we went back to the studio and made Tompa, sent it to her, and she liked it. She asked that we record that, and we returned to the studio. She was very vibrant in the studio when we recorded the song; we did the video. It was easy and fun,” says Kandle.

Tompa has now surpassed 1.4 million views on YouTube and is one of their most-watched videos on the app. They are grateful for the feat.

Speaking about working with the Swangz Avenue star, Kataleya noted how Vinka is an energetic artist who likes what she does.

“We want to thank Vinka; she really made it easy for us coz we had issues around that time, but she gave us a song that brought us back in the industry. We’re really grateful,” Kataleya added.

The duo cannot wait to perform with her again during her #VinkLiveAndLoud concert scheduled for 21st August at Lugogo Cricket Oval.

She loves what she does, she’s energetic, she’s a nice person. The first time we performed with Vinka was magical and it’s going down again on 21st (August).
