Come on bros? I mean come on? First of all the Title sounds very ignorant. what do they mean by Shaka Zulu on them? I dig what they are trying to do with the lyrics, african pride and all of that but how do you have such a theme for a song then do a blinged out video with booty shacking like its a Nelly/Lil' Wayne video. I mean what the fck bros?

Very disappointing. very ignorant.

Whats good,
without going into too much detail "Shaka Zulu On Em" is just a catch phrase, that embodies Africa Pride and Paying Homage to our roots. We wanted something that would grab people's attention... search twitter for @zonefam and you will see what I mean. We have over 3000 views on youtube in a week so that must say something?! Secondly - with the bling and booty shaking - we didn't want to go the obvious route and shoot in the country side with a typical African Scenery and props - that has been done before...we have seen traditional African videos with girls booty shaking - is it only acceptable then?

We are really sorry to have disappointed you - we shall try and impress you in the near future

Peace Fam

I see.

Yes I have seen them but I haven't seen any that portrays them (women) in the same sexual context as shown in american videos and in this video. Some cultures here have men and women in the music videos wearing as little as men and women on Bay Watch but its never in the sexual context of your video here. Thats where the difference is.

Video is dope son. Hot chicks, are they 3/3 Zambian?
I see what RR is saying about the title being deceiving but then on the other hand it's a very subjective thing to form an opinion about a song solely from its title.

Some of the lyrics fit the title ("nkosi yamakhosi..., never leave an enemy behind")

but on second thought the video could have been called "Jacob Zuma Em (Chicks)" 8)
