Former Carlos Green Manager, Gushungo Transmogrify to the Mic Himself

 



Gushungo was known in the music circles as an artist manager for Carlos Green, Wanai and Jean Masters. Unbeknown he had singing abilities himself too. Gushungo says while he was managing artists he appreciated well how to become a successful musician. The exposure while in the trenches on behalf of other musicians convinced him to turn to the microphone himself.


Singing is not new to Gushungo as he affirm that back in 2013 he sang in church such that people positively commented his singing abilities.  It was his mother as he narrated that inspired him to take singing as a career. Gushungo's powerful voice, motivational and mature lyrics integrant his music.




Currently Gushungo released his debut album Machembere a 2020 production. His band is busy preparing for live shows as soon as lockdown restrictions are relaxed. Gushungo says the sky is the limit, he has come in the competitive music industry to stay. About criticism Gushungo said, he was not perturbed at all about negativity. 


"If big artists with a large following can still endure bad mouthing from the public and continue to be successful who am I to be stopped".

In loving memory of Mrs. Josephine Machuma (Nee Matongo)

  Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga   Mrs. Machuma played a pivotal role in shaping my Christian values and that of many during her time as a Sunday School teacher at St. Stephen United Methodist Church in the early 80s. Her catechism teachings strengthened my faith in the birth and death of Jesus Christ, and her picturesque illustrations of God’s omnipotence and omniscience remain vivid in my mind. As a dedicated teacher with stints at Zengeza 5 and 8 Primary Schools, Mrs. Machuma was known for her blunt yet nurturing approach. She would candidly address shortcomings, and her passion for education was evident. Many students, including myself, benefited from her guidance, and I’m sure many share my sentiments about her calling to educate. Together with her husband, Mr. Shepherd Machuma, the family embodied the good teachings of John Wesley. Their union, bound by vows of love and commitment, was a testament to the power of marriage. Even in separation, their love remains unwaver...

United Methodist Church: A Path of Continuous Improvement

   Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga  As a product of the United Methodist Church, I've come to realize the immense value of the administrative, business and leadership skills that the church imparts. Initially, I didn't appreciate these aspects, but after exploring other denominations, I returned to the United Methodist Church, recognizing its exceptional leadership development opportunities. The church's reporting system has had a profound impact on my self-development, and the process of worship, family ministering, and starting new churches has equipped me with replicable skills that I've applied to my daily life. Through the United Methodist Church, I've developed strong decision-making skills, strategic thinking, and effective communication. These skills have, in turn, fostered my commitment to transparency and social justice, which are now core values that I uphold in all my endeavors. I've come to expect accountability and fairness in any group or associa...

Accept Defeat & Save For Next Encounter

Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga  Defeat can be a bitter pill to swallow, especially when you’ve given it your all. Often, we underestimate our opponents or overestimate our abilities. When reality sets in, our strengths are exposed, and weaknesses revealed. Learning from Defeat Accepting defeat allows us to: 1. Acknowledge our limitations : Recognize areas where we need improvement. 2. Identify blind spots : Understand where our intellect never envisaged and eventually fell short. 3. Strengthen our approach : Develop strategies rather than look down upon opponents through speculation. The Dangers of Pride Maintaining pride by belittling opponents or denying reality develops demeaning speech. Reality will eventually catch up, and it’s better to adapt than to cling to a flawed approach. Moving Forward To prepare for the next encounter: 1. Focus on the future : Set new goals and work towards achieving them. You can’t entertain two tasks equally at the same time; the past will eat int...
