Hi readers ,i had the privilege to interview Zambia’s upcoming dancehall artists today and he goes by the name KALADOSHAS i must say he is FIRE !
Kaladoshas “the best” now also known as The Field Marshal storms not only the Zambian music scene but the whole world with his brand new Dance hall hit single ”Roll”. Signed under Tilimo Entertainment, an upcoming Zambian entertainment company which wishes to invest in Zambian art, surely the sky will only be the beginning for this young dance Hall artist who hopes to take over the dance hall scene.
At what age did you realize have this talent ?
• At 11
Which artists inspire you to sing ? Who do you admire ?
• Don’t really have inspiration or people I admire I just listen to all types of music and just feel the melody. Different types of emotion inspire me to sing that’s what brings out my music. But like in Zambia people like Daddy Zemus, Crystal Shaun, Alubusu made me realise that dancehall could be done in Zambia. I like Paul Ngozi as well, talented individual.
With all the stigma and struggles attached to the music and entertainment industry, why venture into it ?
• Hahaha you got questions hey lol ehhh,Honestly music is something in me and I can’t let go, the only reason av ventured into the industry is cause I wanna help it grow, want to show what Zambia is capable of doing. Zambia to the top
Yes i do have questions lol and i’m firing them at you like a gunshot,
For someone listening to your music, they should be left with a feeling of knowing and understanding you; almost as if you beta your soul for the world to see. What would you want people to say and think about you based on your music?
•You’re good,you’re really good. I would want them to say I changed the Zambian music scene and spearheaded the new generation of Zambian music that produces quality international and local music. That artist that made Zambian get recognised on the world map
If you had to choose only one,which one of your songs would you choose to be the soundtrack of your life and why?
•Your blog is orderly, very impressive work and your writing as well is superb. Nice! Ummmm currently got out of a relationship so my music has been more on the love side lol so don’t think I have that song yet but Roll which I released year is good people like it😉
Thank you, much obliged 😊,If you could meet any one artist in history (alive/dead) who would be and what would you learn from them?
• The late PJ just to say goodbye. Alive- Rihanna lol just to spend a night with her. That is recording a song haha
Music and entertainment is generally very demanding on an artists time;How do you manage your personal relationships with family and friends when you are not in studio or performing?
•Am a very blessed artist I should say, so I don’t have to record a million songs to have a good song, each song I do is carefully done so I don’t spend a lot of time in studio, so I have some time to spare for other things,Don’t need a lot of studio time. What takes more time is promotion, trying to sell the artist, things like “interviews” lol
Lol very funny Kaladoshans ,If your music were to tale the shape and form of a woman; who would it be and why(The woman could be anyone in the world)?
•Is this an exam or an interview lol? Jhene Aiko, because she’s sexy,mysterious and looks simple but has more to her within that’s what my music is except the mysterious part lol
Its an exam lol i’m exercising your brain 😂 If you could get onto any collabo with any artist, who would it be and why? Local and International that is ?
•Local- Danny, Exile, Mampi, JK, Kmillian cause they held they game for some time and would wanna coloborate with them so they signify the passing on of the torch to this coming generation us, the new international Zambian sound
As a musician, music videos are sometimes bigger than the song depending on who did it. Which cinematographer/director do you dream to work with?
• Collin Tilley, he does most of Chris Browns videos, he did the new flame Oh and an international artist I would like to work with is Rihanna
What is the one life lesson you would like to share with everyone ?
• Be humble, no matter what you achieve or how high you get. Humility is what describes true greatness
Which one music award do you dream of receiving and how long do you think it will take you to get it?How much effort do you need to put in to get to the level of the award?
•Oscar,how long? honestly I think only God could tell cause right now winning an oscar is a dream just like you put it in your question. Effort, a whole lot of it would be needed but we never say never, with God anything is possible. I have the Talent that cannot be doubted
If there was one song in history you wish you had written and performed, what song would that be?
•Dear Mama by Tupac,its a classic!
I was beyond impressed when i watched your musical video ‘Roll’ lol i couldnt believe you were Zambian. I loved it , surely you will excel 🙂
• Thank you so much, really appreciate. Just trying to do something different and raise the bar you know, it aint easy but I guess that’s the cross that we have to carry cause God gave us the talent we surely have to use it.
You have raised the bar,and its just the beginning , we are looking forward to see more coming from you
• Hehehe yes we are doing it, got something i have done local with Petersen ,a video which will be released soon,then i have done something in Nigeria as well which i will be releasing,so there is a lot coming.
Awesome ! Lol i cannot wait , i’m already a fan. Thank you so much for having to do this with me.
