It\u2019s the kind of song that would make dust clouds stand in northern Namibia as everyone losses their feet in the rhythm of the lively Shambo music.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On track 7, the artist brings in a more subtle R&amp;B instrumental sound with song titled \u201cHold on\u201d. The track embodies feeling without forcing it to contend with the artist\u2019s voice and shares a hopeful message to the youth populous who find themselves unemployed as the artist states, \u201cWhere you come from does not determine your destiny. You could be living in the shacks of Havana to living in mansion in Klein Windhoek, keep working, never give up.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The album features two artists, namely, Top Cherri and Patrick from PDK. <br \/>Taking into consideration that it\u2019s a debut, the album \u201cI am a Winner\u201d does not offend the ear of the listener and scores 3 out of 5 stars. <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While having an ear for great instrumental sounds, the artist could do more in terms of realising full vocal capabilities by practicing his pitch. Focused, and multitalented, Shinedima is a young man to look out for in Namibia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"alignnormal\"><!-- MetaSlider 271797 not found --><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":283316,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29,24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-283313","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
