In the beginning, Phuzekhemisi\'s socially conscious messages were seen as threatening, and he was actually banned from a number of hostels in Zululand. But he continued on to stardom, never losing sight of a key objective, to bring peact to KwaZulu-Natal. He has collaborated with older maskanda greats, and with a Ndebele singer/guitarist Nothembi. As of 2001, he had released eight albums of his own. ">
