Her ‘Iron Man’ video gained Wacheda popularity as the first artiste to top the Zambezi Magic charts on 8 stints, six of those running back to back. Wacheda went on to win RnB video of the year in the first ever CBC Television Awards.

 Subsequently, she released the much acclaimed female anthem “Maliyo,” a colloquial term equivalent to the famous “John solye ubwali.” The accompanying video was voted video of the month by various bloggers including the highly critical Zambiamusic.net for the first quarter of 2017. On the back of this success, Wacheda has teamed up with Mic Burner and DJ Cosmo to regale us with the much-hyped dance-hall tune “No More”  and was bucked by big brands such as Sterkenikor Cinemas and Debonaires Zambia. She has recently been showcasing visuals from the video shoot for her dance-hall tune.

Apart from being an artiste, Wacheda prides herself in being a wife, mother and a career woman as Financial Advisor. She was educated at Hillcrest Technical High School and thereafter studied ACCA. She is now pursuing her life long passion for TV as a 3rd year Mass Communications and Public Relations student. Engaged in some charitable activities as a member of the Lusaka Ladies Circle alongside other business ventures, she can be commended for making the most of her time and most certainly deserves to be among Zambia’s top artistes of the moment.  Wacheda believes all things in life are possible and encourages young girls with her mantra “You can have it all, you must!”

Her behind-the-scenes images from the video shoot for ‘NO More’, have caused quite a stir on social media, with some visuals indicating she had chattered a private jet for the shoot. She is most certainly holding the Zambian music industry by its neck as well as putting her home town of Livingstone on the map.
