I am a big fan of TKZee.I think that Halloween was an improvement from their first album.This album has a beautiful mix of african sounds and european or american suonds.The most loveable song is Sikelela which is in a beautiful african rythym,slow moving and allows the listner to appreciate the language used as well as the way these boys have a laid back way of singin.It can put a smile upon anyones face ,especially if you happen to be South African too.They put a lot of pride into their work.Being yuong boys I think that this is truly a spark in the Suoth African music industry.The lyrics are clean and happy ones not incuoraging violence or drug abuse.Anyone who has not listened to these guys doesn't know what they are missing.Another one of their enjoyable tracks is Bona Senzani in which they used a piano amidst all the other skills. Those two are my personal favuorites among all the other songs which are all truly worth while to listen to.What a lovely album!Well done boys!

TKZee are the best ever. Halloween is a hot ablbum, and their newer one "TKZee Family" is even better. You have to hear them, all you, all over the world.

Exceptional album fusing a cacophony of various music genres into what South Africans lovingly refer to as "Kwaito". The album proves that TKZee is by some margin the best contemporary group in South Africa and has the best chance of globalizing our sensationally rythmic Kwaito melodies.

This trio comes as far from PHALAFALA, their single(debut) hit way back '95-'96. I reckon this is their carrer best album ever (I mean HALLOWEEN), it swept (the South African kwaito scenes ) flatout during its realease in 1998, it flew higher above it's peers like Bongo Maffin(AppleSeed, Excellent Ragga), Boom Shaka and all the scums that follow.

Rich, Audioliciously-Tight beats, funky rythm for PANTSULA's(S.A Hip-Hoppers) to twist their spine, waists & thighs to the floor
with their Converse All-Star dancing shoes. Rhyming of before-,
-during- and -after the Weekend Clubing sessions/scenarios.

In short, this is a must have and a good tastefull introduction to Kwaito if you exposed not, other bands I'll recommend are Bongo Maffin - Final Entry, Boom Shaka - Boom Shaka.

Kwaito is a new semi "House Music" out of South Africa. For those who like dance music, they should give it a listen. TK Zee (in my mind) is by far the best Kwaito group and "Halloween" is an excellent CD.

Try out this great album from South Africa. I believe that Kwaito has a chance to become incredibly popular through out the United States. It's dance beats are incredible and offer something new to American music.

first of all a shout out to all my peoples, Pepe, Charles, G.K, Cookie, & most importantly Keith (I ain't after your girl) now about this TKZee biz, when Y'all gone learn that peoples are getting their groove on in Africa? Whats the best way to get your groove on? ...TKZee. kicking palafalas and the sikelelas that how I get down with my shibobos.

Much love, Tendai Get your self HALLOWEEN

10 years later, i believe tkzee is still unsurpassed kwaito artists! this album popular as it was when it first came out still makes good listening today and it shall remain so.

and its for sheezzy. how refreshing to know that someone shares the same sentiments as i do about this album. it really does it for me where kwaito is concerned. try it out.
