• ZIMBABWEAN HERO • GLOBAL LEGEND •
After our interview about “The Zim Music Industry” – I asked you to sing at my wedding and you said yes! My favourite song is by you and Ringo Madlongozi: “Into Yami.” I guess I took too long to have the wedding…💔One day when my “forever” is waiting for me at the end of the aisle, I shall play it, “Zvese zvangu! Mudiwa ndezvako!”🎶🎼 THERE IS NO ONE LIKE

YOU @tukumusikofficial Tino dada nemi sevana veZimbabwe. I mean who has a whole genre called “Tuku Music” simply because he doesn’t fit into any existing genre? Only Legends do that. RIP SAMANYANGA. We celebrate you! Go well- but the music stays right here with us. Asante. #Tuku #OliverMutukudzi #ZimbabweanHero #GlobalLegend
