Artists from the Northern Region have expressed dismay over the attitude of some radio DJs and TV presenters who do not play their songs.
The musicians claim that despite producing good songs, artists from the North do not enjoy airplay as compared to their friends from other regions.
Speaking in an interview, one of renowned artists in the Northern Region, K Man, said some radio DJs are very biased in promoting artists in the country.
“We wonder if we are equally Malawians. They don’t play our songs despite striving to send them good songs. We are all Malawians and we equally need promotion,” he said.
He further trashed the tendency of some DJs who demand gifts from artists for their songs to be played on radio or TV.
“That is discouraging up and coming artists who feel they can’t manage bribing DJs to have their songs played on the radio or TV,” he said.
Another artist Jimmy Lee said being in the Northern Region is becoming a barrier for artists to make a name in Malawi.
He added that apart from the attitudes of DJs, organisers of music events are equally snubbing artists from the North.
“They don’t organise shows in the Northern Region. Each time it’s Blantyre and Lilongwe. Does that mean we don’t have people who love entertainment here? That is very discouraging,” he said.
On his part, Mzuzu based musician Tinyeta said he feels let down when organisations invite artists from other regions even if the show is in Mzuzu.
He said artists in Mzuzu and Northern Region are equally Malawians and deserve to be respected like others from other regions.
“We have good artists here in the Northern Region that deserve to be respected. Some of them are even better than those you consider the best, it’s time we gave them a chance to deliver,” he said.
Responding to the concerns, presenter for Beta TV, Biggie Lu who is also an artist, said on his part he plays any music which is good regardless of where the artist comes from.
“They are free to send me videos I’m ready to play them. I don’t demand money from artists. As a presenter it’s my duty to promote artists through playing their videos,” he said.

Gwamba ndiwakuti? kambani zina man k
You know what this issue its been misunderstood by both the north accusers and all of u commenting , If the Djs don’t play the North’s tracks that means the DJs have problems so stop considering this issue as a tribalism matter this is something to do with music not tribes , So its a matter of advising our DJs to change the minds not that we should quarrel
Zankutu umati aziika mphale zanuzo?
Simuyimba nyimbo zabwino…ndiye mumati ma dj azisewela mbwelelazo
Give us 1 example of bad music done by some1 from north ,gwamba is from north & u can’t compare his music with your likes of mbanjere
Akulu chizungu chinabwela usiku eti? Kapena munalekeza mu 4 yakale ?…Mzuzu is not north …the author is talking about Mzuzu …and I can’t worst my time to mention one of your stupid musicians. ..kagwele mbuzi ya chitumbuka iwe…
Koma atumbuka aaaaaaaaaah
Osakambapo za mlakho bwanji
Bello, mwati chitumbuka is not allowed in public palaces? Like where? Za chamba eti,
Chitumbuka is allowed only in viphya, nyika & rest of the bushes in the northern region. Anthu akamalankhula chitumbuka mntauni ngati Lilongwe ndi Blantyre zimakhala zochititsa manyazi kwabasi komanso zosalemekeza town.

His brain is stagnant forgive him
Mpoto there is more than 15 ziyahkulo (mitundu ya anthu,) osangoti atumbuka atumbuka,
They are not saying Tumbuka artists, they are saying mzuzu artists. There could be an artist based in mzuzu but a Lhomwe or an artist based in Blantyre but a Tumbuka. Wize up people. World is a global village.
Well said..i think misunderstanding is not a good thing
It’s a disease

Thats true, we only hear their songs on MBC TV on that programme of good morning malawi from Kaning’ina studio, on other days you can’t hear their songs on MBC, JOY, MIJ, ZODIACK etc , but good musicians from the north they don’t stay in north, these people are developing music in Sourthen and Centrel region, the likes of Penjani Kaluba ( Fredokiss ), Martin Nkhata ( Matse ) etc, even when it comes to football, we have good players from the north who are developing football in Sourthen and Centrel region!
And northern Region has produced good musicians ever!! talking of Mtebeti Wambali mkandawile,Chimwemwe mhango,Akafish Luhanga,Tionge hango,Masudi khonje,Goodrich phiri,Donex muva,and the only Jazz artist from Malawi And international is Wambali mkandawile,And gwanba us from North even Onesmass,Matse(Martin nkhata) wendy harawa including billy kaunda Amagedon Band.etc nde mutiuzanji
Thats true bro, but the problem is that most of those artists they don’t stay in North, they stay in L city and B Town, and they represent Suorth and Centrel region, and sometimes I blame them bcoz most of their song they don’t feature upcoming artists from the north!
They follow where there’s a better economic environment. So don’t blame them. Blame those who didn’t balance economic development of Malawi from first day.
