Buffalo Souljah, an award-winning Zimbabwean dancehall musician based in South Africa, has claimed that he is the richest Zimbabwean artist.
He has been acknowledged both locally and Africa-wide with awards that set him apart from a number of local Zimdancehall artists.
In a Facebook post seen by Pindula News, Buffalo Souljah who is also referred to as Bigg Buff or Buffalo Soldier, said:
I’m the richest Zim Artist out here Hate it or love it munozviziva Buffalo Zigoati Even Badman Video Was r200k budget
Born Thabani Ndlovu in Bulawayo on 16 September 1980, but later moved to Mufakose, Harare.
He is the son of the late great Zimbabwean saxophonist Unity Ndlovu (who played alongside Thomas Mapfumo in the 70s and early ’80s), drawing a lot of inspiration from his father, and concentrating on his music after his father’s passing in 1992.
His remarks come days after flamboyant Zimbabwean preacher, Passion Java claimed that Jah Prayzah was richer than Winky D.
Java said the capital or investment made into the music projects of the artists bears testimony.
Buffalo Souljah started writing music young, composing “Zuva Randisingakanganwe” (“The day I will never forget”) his first song at eight years.
Some believe Passion Java, who recently released his own album, and Mudiwa Hood could be richer than Buffalo Souljah.
