Picture: SUPPLIEDMaraqana does the Eastern Cape proudLusikisiki-born Afro-soul sensation scoops three MetroFM awardsBy LINDILE SIFILEReporting from Port ElizabethTHE Eastern Capes Afro-Soul sensation Siphokazi Maraqana stole the show at the glitzy MetroFM Awards ceremony in Port Elizabeth on Saturday by winning all three categories in which she was nominated. Maraqana was crowned best newcomer and best female vocalist. Her debut CD, Ubuntu Bam, also won best produced album. The Lusikisiki-born musician, known for her shyness and rural charm, had a spring in her step as she collected her awards, wearing different outfits for each award. The crowd cheered each time she bounced up the aisle. Maraqana beat Lira and Nhlanhla Nciza in the greatly contested best female vocalist category, while she kicked dust in the eyes of Freshlyground and in the best produced album category, before stealing the best newcomer award from Zonke and Jozi. Speaking to the Daily Dispatch yesterday, the visibly tired Maraqana said she hadnt rested since she scored the hattrick on Saturday night…
He made this all possible, she said. Maraqana started her singing career a few years ago as a back-up singer for prominent local artists such as Ringo, Simphiwe Dana and Tshepo Tshola. Last year she took centre stage by producing Ubuntu Bam with the renowned musician Lawrence Matshiza and Sipho Sithole. Ubuntu Bam got her five nominations in the South African Music Awards (Samas) early this year. She won two awards at that event. The new kid on the block, cuddly kwaito star Lvovo, was another big winner on Saturday, taking two awards home. His 2006 hit, Bayang sukela, was voted best song of the year and his album received the best kwaito album award.
