When Zakes Bantwini first played Osama for fans at a music event, he had no idea that the song would go viral. In fact, he had only planned to officially release the track in mid-October, but due to the demand from fans, has decided to drop the song on Friday 10 September. Many have been looking for the lyrics because they are tired of biting their tongues
