I will also have a guest performer from South Africa.” According to him, they were also “developing an application for poets who are passionate about spoken word and poetry” in general. He said “both the CD and the application will be launched [on the 2nd of April]. Some of the poems to be included in the CD are the ones Malewezi has performed at a number of venues all over the world, Nyasa Times understands. Malewezi, better known as ‘Q’, grew up in Lilongwe. With a passion for the arts, he studied performing arts at the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts (LIPA) in the United Kingdom.
