Hwabaraty Releases Jelimana Short Film

"Jelimana lidlozi (it's an ancestral spirit) that brings about luck in one's life. Back then every white person was called a Jelimana, and when a black person was successful in life, elders often said uleJelimana (he has luck just like a white person). "This all reflects back to my life. When I was young, I was blessed and very lucky that I toured Europe, there is no major country that I never performed at in my life. "But as I grew up, I started to ignore my cultural values as an African and the gods punished me for that. Things started to be hard in my life. But when I answered my calling and reconnected with my roots, the ship started to sail smoothly again," said Hwabaraty.
