Bulawayo based musician Vuyo Brown has released her new single, Mayeh on digital platforms.

Speaking to ZTN, Vuyo, whose real name is Vuyolwethu Ngwenya, said the song is about forgiveness and yearning to return to one’s first love.

“It’s a song about someone who wants to go back “home.” Someone telling their heart to go back home, to its “first love” and asking the first love (personified) for forgiveness.”

The artiste has ventured into the risky but bold “Pay What You Want” model with the online launch of her brand new single “Mayeh”.

Through “Pay What You want”, Vuyo Brown lets people decide how much they want to buy her new song for, rather than give them a set price tag.

“The goal is to reach 400 digital sales in two weeks with fans paying as much as they feel the song is worth to them. The more they like it, the more they may pay. As such, the model is in effect from 23 April to May 07, 2021 and aims to reach as many people as possible,” Vuyo Brown wrote on her Twitter account.

Last year, Vuyo Brown was crowned as the outstanding female artist at the Bulawayo Arts Awards. She released her debut album ‘Grace Fulfilled’ in 2018 and is the voice behind the chart-topping hit song “Thula Wazi” (Be Still and Know)
