  6. Heya,

    If you are into South African jazz, you should seriously check out Mpumi Dhlamini's debut album, "Combined Elements".

    Trust me, it's a great buy! For a 21 year old, he is pretty talented..I've heard him live a couple of times, and I have one word - awesome!

    You can listen to some of his songs on his website,

    www.mpumidhlamini.com

    Let me know what you think..

    Ciao!
