The Story Behind: Zakes Bantwini "Osama"

The Story Behind is all about your favourite music on the Top 40 on 5, where Nick Archibald sits down with your favourite artists and gets the full story behind their songs.
Zakes Bantwini is a musical genius. Kasango, who created the original instrumental for Osama, sent the track after Bantwini's first listen. Working on the track on the same day, saw Osama come to life.
This track dominated our lives from July 2021 - spending several weeks as the number one song on the chart, becoming an icon at 5FM.
Check out all the details behind this beautiful song as Nick and Zakes unpack the hit-track that is Osama.
