Proud Zimbo [Anhu Acho]

Have been waiting for this album since the beginning of the year, included it among  10 Albums I am Looking Forward to In 201 7 and its finally here. Ammara has featured on a number of hit jams such as ExQ's Bhachura and Tytan's Mukoko which is also included in this album. To show us a glimpse of what she can do when not featuring she gave us the tracks Watchu Want featuring her lil sis Chengeto and then towards the album she released Akiliz , both the tracks have been received well by a lot of Zimbos, but many remained a bit skeptical of whether she can stand on her own and this album will definitely answer that. Have been listening to the album and now will be sharing my views and thoughts on the album. Ammara engaged the reliable services of Walter Wanyanya's Ngoma Nehosho for the launch and like many other Ngoma Nehosho events this went on very well, the album launch was well attended. A fitting launch for the already informally crowned " Queen Of  Po

Alishias "Maskiri" Musimbe is the ultimate bad boy of Zim Music, he is quite the controversial figure but one thing you cannot deny is the talent the artist possesses. His provocative style of rapping earned him a cult following all over Zimbabwe. He made his name with his explicit Blue Movie mixtapes which were heavily pirated despite being released at a period (early 2000's) when the internet was not accessible to the majority of Zimbos. After he had conquered the underground scene he cleaned up his lyrics and he went on to release some radio friendly tracks which got quite a lot of radio airplay. Maskiri was also embroiled into arguably the biggest beef the local music industry has ever seen between him and Stunner. I however was on the Stunner side but I definitely acknowledged the talent that Maskiri possesses. Today will be compiling my top 5 tracks from the artist. 5. Kuseri Nekuseri This track was a declaration of Maskiri's prowess, he was showc

Courtney Antipas is one of the finest rappers on the local music scene, he has been in the game for years has gained a lot of experience and composure which shows throughout his music. Despite being a Christian rapper he commands the same respect as compared to the best secular rappers. He has now released a new album which I have been listening to for the past couple of weeks and today will be sharing my views and thoughts on the project. I'm not really sure about the artwork, this is supposed to be a Gospel and uplifting album but the design leans more to the darker side. On the other hand one may interpret it as if he is baring his scars on this album, something which he does in the album hence the scars, so i'm kinda split on the artwork. Tell me what you think about the artwork???. The album contains 8 tracks and as per usual will be doing a track by track review. 1. Know Too Much feat C.O.G Keeping in line with the artwork this first track starts with a sus

The local industry is filled with many big explosive tracks from various leading genres but at certain moments one needs to calm down and listen to music that speaks to the soul. This is where such artists such as Fungai Nengare, Prayersoul, Kevin Munetsi, Tariro Negitare come to the fold, these artists have so much soul in their music. Today will be concentrating with Fungai Nengare, he has released a new album titled Songs About You and will be sharing my views and thoughts on the album. For those who do not know him, he is the guy that gave us the lovely track;  Because Of You feat DJ Naida   From the title you will know that this is more of a personal album, dedicated to that special somebody in you life. The album contains 12 tracks and as usual will be doing a track by track review of the album. 1. Songs About You Something about this track reminds me of Lionel Ritchie's Easy Like Sunday Morning , I bet Fungai is a huge fan of that track and it's one of the

In every music industry there are those artists that come and sweep you away with their talent but for some reason they just fail to realize that talent. Zim is no exception and today will sharing with you such artists from the local scene. 5. Ras Caleb When he dropped Tokwe Mukosi he revived the reggae genre in Zim, that track was loved by a lot of people and he went on to follow up with some lovely reggae tracks  ( Nehanda , Mutoro , Toropito & Mwana Wenyu Uyu)  and for some time many believed this guy was the new face of Zim reggae, his vocals and delivery were on point. He however started to try his hand in Dancehall and all started going downhill and now he near being forgotten. Had he kept to the reggae music that made him popular he could have been a much bigger artist. 4. Madiz This guys made us believe that Rhumba was not dead in Zimbabwe, he had so much energy and whenever he got on the stage you would definitely take notice of him. He got Zimbos dancing

There are a lot of big and iconic artists in this beautiful country of Zimbabwe and on this series will just be picking my 5 favourite tracks from those artists. So if you ever wondered what my taste in music is like, this series will definitely answer that question. So every two weeks will be giving you a new episode, so keep following the blog and vlog channel on YouTube. The first artist I will be concentrating on is the man of the moment Jah Prayzah. JP is building an empire in the local music industry, he is the biggest artists in Zim now and given how things are going he will be among the biggest in Africa. He is flying the Zim flag high on the continental scene and at the same time opening many doors for other Zim artists.  JP has been in the game for some time now and he has give Zimbos many hits but on a personal note he ever really caught my attention till he releases Jerusarema in 2015. So all of my favourite JP tracks come from 2015 to date. Without wasting much ti
