Telkom, GoodLuck and Black Motion announce a new South African Christmas song

Telkom has taken a fresh approach to its festive PR campaign by inviting two of SA's top musical talents, GoodLuck and Black Motion to collaborate and produce a new, fresh, funky and authentically South African Christmas carol, '12 Days of Christmas'.

The song will form part of a campaign that has been carefully orchestrated to create awareness of Telkom’s innovative 12 Deals of Christmas Campaign that will start on 1 December 2017 and stretch over twelve days. Telkom will offer exiting deals over the twelve days with a substantial free gift included.

South Africans can download the song now for free on http://www.telkom.co.za/12deals/ and watch the video on Telkom’s YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/TelkomMobile/videos.
