Fast-rising and talented Zimbabwean Dancehall artist Pumacol has been speaking and even singing about his desire to work with Ammara Brown for years now. On the Rymez produced anthem – Time Time the charismatic chanter gets his wish as two forces of the Zimbabwean entertainment scene collide to produce magic.

Much like the collaboration itself, the song’s beat fuses the sounds of both pop and dancehall - underpinned by a guitar lick that repeatedly chimes in like a metronome as Boss Pumacol makes his advances to Ammara only to have them met by a rebuff from her requesting more Time Time.

I only know your name
But it’s not, not the same
Boy tell me oh really
Boy are you feeling me 
You talk a, a good game
But it's not not the same
It’s not about the fame

About Pungwe Sessions

In 2014  Point Black and its African Hip Hop Blog brand partnered with Rymez on a collaborative project called Pungwe Sessions . The goal was to showcase Zimbabwe’s best Hip Hop talent by leveraging The African Hip Hop Blog’s and Rymez’ collective reach and relationships to maximise exposure. The first single titled “Phil Chiyangwa” by Jnr Brown held the top spot on the ZiFM Urban Chart for 10 weeks. 3 more singles were released from the EP. All 4 singles on The Pungwe Sessions charted on various radio stations in Zimbabwe. They have been playlisted on various radio stations in Zimbabwe, South Africa, Zambia, Namibia, Australia and, The USA as well as playlisting on 2 seasons of the Big Brother Africa reality show. The artists involved with the project were able to draw direct economic benefits from on the project via publishing royalties and performance bookings.

With Pungwe Sessions Vol. II which is supported in partnership with Goethe Institut and The Zimbabwean German Society, Point Black and Rymez are looking to follow up on the success of the first project and create more impact for the artists involved. Pungwe Sessions Vol. II is a collaborative album that hopes to elevate Zimbabwean musicians via education, collaboration and promotion
