“He is Ours!” Zimbabweans Outraged As Publication Acknowledges Winky D As South African On Upcoming Bob Marley Album
Zimbabweans have expressed their outrage over a mix-up that wrongly identified international award-winning artist Winky D as South African.
Reggae-dancehall star Winky D, together with hitmaker Nutty O, were featured on the upcoming album “Africa Unite: The Singles Collection” by the late legend Bob Marley.
Winky D Credited As South African By News Site On Africa Bob Marley Unite Album
However, Charts Africa, a music news website, posted a list of artists on the album and Zimbabweans are breathing fire.
Posting on its Twitter page, Charts Africa shared a list of all the artists featured on the album and their nationalities. Winky D’s name was accompanied by a South African flag instead of a Zimbabwean one.
The error sparked a backlash on social media, with many Zimbabweans accusing Charts Africa of disrespecting their country. Some also questioned the credibility of the website and its sources.
