OpenView HD viewers can look forward to a new drama series,
Hustle. The drama series is based on the premise of a volatile music
industry and covers all aspects relating to music, talent and the various twists and
turns in a cut throat music business.
Hustle follows the story of a has-been music diva who has lost her
mojo after a long and successful career. Kitt is a has-been, who sang hit records,
had a huge fan base, and performed in big concerts in the 80s, but her career has
crashed. She started off like many great artists in a singing group called The
Sparrows with her sister and best friend, but her extraordinary voice and hot
ambition made sure she was picked from the trio and nurtured to superstardom.
She rose to the heights of the South African music industry.
Kitt is now trying to make a come-back. The drama captures her rough journey
back to the top of the charts.
The leading role of Kitt will be portrayed by actress Brenda Ngxoli. Ngxoli will act
alongside talented actors such as Masello Montana, Dineo Ranaka, Zolisa Xaluva
Xolile Sithole and Angela Sithole.
“This series presents the pursuit of dreams and how they can sometimes uplift and
destroy us. We have chosen a cast that defines our characters. These are all actors
who bring talent, passion and a sense of the drama of life,” says Fireworx producer
Bridget Pickering.
The drama series is produced by Fireworx.
The series will be exclusive to eKasi+ but will air later in 2016 on e.tv.
Hustle will premiere on Thursday, 11 February at 21h00 on eKasi+
channel 104 on OpenView HD
