Wadarirei Klopp? 😩😭😝😜
Fellow Liverpool Supporters, gather here. In the last few hours, following that devastating announcement that Klopp will be leaving us, I decided to cook a little something up kuti tinyaradzane (to console and comfort ourselves - for you all non Shona speakers) … 😜😝
Liverpool haters, we know you are rejoicing… we see you! 🤣😆😆 So you, too, can gather here and dance to this beat as you celebrate our misery.

Bvongodza Muto - What's Going On (Cover)
Переглядів 50 тис.Рік тому
In my humble opinion, what sets African music apart from western music is the ability to utilize simple harmony, married with interesting (often repetitive and persistent) rhythms to come up with the most beautiful music you will ever hear. Oliver Mtukudzi was master at doing this. His amazing ability to utilize simple chord progressions… often same ones in a lot of different songs, but approac...
Mhodzi

Mhodzi is the working title of this one at the moment. What do you think, friends? Should we make it into a big production with several instruments or just keep it sparse with just guitar and vocals… maybe subtle percussion? Zimbabwe, Oliver Mtukudzi, Harare, Thomas Mapfumo, Andy Brown, Jah Prayzah, Afropop

It’s exactly a year today since I posted the very first video of what I’d come to dub as my ‘Basement Studio Sessions’. With a goal of highlighting and paying tribute to some of Zimbabwe’s greats, I tried to take you all on a weekly journey through a wide range of songs and give a snapshot of the sounds that rocked Zimbabwe when I was growing up. Although it has been a lot of work and sacrifice...
Yekunwa (Cover)
Переглядів 28 тис.3 роки тому
This is a cover of Oliver Mtukudzi's Yekunwa from the RUDAVIRO album. The poetry of this legendary artist will never seize to amaze me. The song’s lyrics generally translate to, “melon, give me water to drink... quench my thirst so I may survive, seeing as it hasn’t rained this year. Heaven, may rain come down. How are my little ones supposed to survive if it doesn’t rain? How is my livestock s...

Life gets tough sometimes and it’s easy to feel like you are all alone in the middle of trying times. I wrote this song to encourage a loved one to be strong and reach out to me when the going gets rough. It says “when the night feels unending, you feel so alone and abandoned. The storm comes and the winds hit you so hard... you lose all strength. You do not know what to do. Reach out to me, I’...
Sando

Sando means “hammer”… but in street lingo, it means “props, respect, plaudits, credit, recognition”. When you give someone their sando, you are acknowledging a job well done or showing respect and admiration. Celebrating someone. To give someone “their flowers”. When I played with Oliver Mtukudzi, one of my most favorite songs to play was “Handinzwi”. In that song he asked, “what is a hero? Do ...

It’s an old story. Through centuries. Through generations. It keeps repeating itself. People of my race. People who look like me. People who come from where I come from. The “have-nots”. We have endured adversity and strife, time and time again. It is hard to understand. Is that how it was designed to be? Why won’t it end? This is a song I wrote as a prayer. A plea to the just and merciful Almi...
Ruva Rangu (Brian Rusike-Pied Pipers) Cover
Переглядів 92 тис.3 роки тому
Last time around, I brought you a rendition of the song RUVA RANGU by the living legend, Thomas Mapfumo. This time, I bring you another RUVA RANGU. This one was written by another legend who, sadly, passed away in 2018. Brian Rusike gave us a number of hits while fronting The Pied Pipers, but RUVA RANGU was the most popular of them all. It remains one of the most well known love songs to ever c...
Ruva Rangu (Cover - Thomas Mapfumo)
Переглядів 27 тис.3 роки тому
I have always been intrigued by the reggae/township-swing/fast shuffle feel of this song. I was a fresh faced 19 year old when I played my first gig at Club Hide Out with Thomas Mapfumo… without a rehearsal. I panicked a little when this song was called and I was supposed to play the solo trumpet part which I had never actually played before in my life. Lucky for me, I had known and loved the s...

A hunter wakes up early in the morning each day. His assegai and axe in hand, he ventures into the woods to find food for his family. He’s so amazingly prolific, each evening, for years, he comes home with more than he can comfortably carry. One day, he fails to make a catch… all of a sudden, he starts to doubt his abilities and thinks he should quit. Uncle, are you suddenly a bad hunter becaus...
Kure Kwaunoenda (Cover)

Hello, friends!! This week I bring you a song from the smoothest man ever in the history of Zimbabwean music. Fortune Muparutsa was WAY ahead of the times when it came to music production in Zimbabwe. His songs and those that he produced for others remain some of the highest quality to ever come out of Zimbabwe. This one is from 1992 and it’s called Kure Kwaunoenda. The songs talks about the he...
Vimbiso (Cover)

Hey, friends!!! Let’s go back to 1989 with this gem by a living legend. Mitchell Jambo’s VIMBISO was an instant hit and it quickly went platinum. He was backed on this one by the Zimbabwe Cha Cha Cha Kings. The song sings praises of Vimbiso, a wholesome young lady whom the singer vows to marry. He says, “her character fills a cup like water enough to quench all of our thirst”. He warns people n...

Hello, friends! I hope 2021 has been kind to you all so far. Five days in... what is it looking like? This week I visited James Chimombe’s catalog again and brought out this gem. Siya Waoneka was a staple on the Thursday night music video show, Mvenge-Mvenge/Ezomgido. Although the lyrics are the voice of a person to their lover who’s leaving them, the songs talks about not burning bridges, in g...
