Princess Makunzva (18) is a new jazz musician who wants to conquer the industry starting by her debut five-track album, Chinonzirega, which she released August 11.
Makunzva is currently giving full focus to her new music career, having finished her secondary education at Zengeza 2 High School last year.
Songs on the album, which was released at Mubaiwa Hotel (formerly Nyamutamba) in the presence of many guests, are Mhiri kwemakungwa, Vari mudande, Une rudo, Mwana anoita rombe and the title track hit Chinonzirega.
The album was produced by one of Zimbabwe’s fast rising music producer, TonFresh and it was well-received by the hundreds of fans who graced its launch.
“I wanted to release a four-track album but I then talked to Biggie Tembo who made me realise that I actually had more to share with Zimbabwe. That is how it ended being a five-track album which I hope will carry my name far and wide,” said Makunzva.
Tembo helped Makunzva in the production of album, supporting her all the way till the album’s release.
“She is undeniably talented and has a knack for understanding what a musician needs and what will work in an industry that is so competitive,” said Tembo
Makunzva also told TellZim News she was looking forward to releasing her second album before end of this year.
“It was a dream come true releasing my first album and I am looking forward to releasing my second album before end of this very year. The journey has been difficult and was fraught with many obstacles but I am glad that I managed to overcome them with the support of my family and friends,” she said.entertainment
