Free Music Notes for Nhava
Free Music Review: Tuku ndizvo!
Hit: 5 Stars
Tuku is the best that ever did it. I did not appreciate his music as much when I lived in Zimbabwe but now that I am abroad, I see what the rest of the world sees. A fantastic artist who is greatness & destined for so much more. If you have never seen him live, you are truly missing out. Shoutout to Kenny Neshamba on the drums & Picky Kasamba on background vocals.
Nhava Poster
Singer/guitarist/activist Oliver Mtukudzi has cut a broad swath through his native Zimbabwe. He has recorded countless records and become the country's biggest star, but his work is less known on this side of the pond. Here on Nhava (which is the Zimbabwean word for "carrying bag"), Mtukudzi offers bag of tunes overflowing with sunny African melodies and lyrics with messages of encouragement and advice. The words are married to a unique style called "Tuku music" (Tuku is his nickname), where Mtukudzi draws upon traditional forms of mbira, modern jiti and South African mbanqanga. In layman's terms, it means Mtukudzi's deep voice, a strong chorus of background vocals, and highly danceable interlocking rhythms of African drums and electric guitars. Highlights include the chiming "Ninipa" and the hypnotic "Pindirai." Regardless of whether Mtukudzi has heard the dance floor mantra, "Free your mind and you feet will follow," he's practicing it here on Nhava. --Tad HendricksonInternational Music CDs
