Lucky Kumene To Heads-up Fans Of Upcoming Album at Eastpoint.

 




This year should be named Sungura Rejuvenated. It all started with the King himself Alick Macheso. He set the pace with his Album Tinosvitswa Kure, the over subscribed album launch at Aquatic Complex sent confidence that Sungura is still alive.


After a couple of years struggling, sungura music is making headlines again. Dancehall had been dominating with the late Soul Jah Love, Winky D, Killer T giving sungura musicians a run for their money. The way Killer T revolved the Dancehall lyrics to relate with people's day to day living made Dancehall music acceptable to all ages.


The winds are kind of balanced now, sungura has resurfaced with Alick Macheso leading while Mark Ngwazi, Romeo Gasa pursue. 


Lucky Kumene is busy replenishing his armoury to apprehend the hype while it lasts. Today 14 October Lucky Kumene is playing at Eastpoint, this show is kind of a rehearsal to his album launch to follow in December at the same venue. 


Lucky Kumene is an underrated sungura kingpin. Lucky has always enjoyed fair crowds wherever he plays with his band. The Kavhiri Kendege singer has his own style though he sometimes emulate the late Leonard Dembo and the late Utakataka Boss Tongai Moyo.


The fans of Dembo and Dhewa envy Kumene, I was privileged to hear some of them in a WhatsApp group we discuss music issues.  The fans are saying Kumene should be the next successor of this genre, his compositions and music arrangements are out of this world. 



 Shot re-ipapo Album launch is going to be held on the 10th of Dec 2022 at Eastpoint. It’s an event that is going to close the Sungura rejuvenation year. Lucky Kumene wants magetho youths to say Lucky Kumene is good (Kumene azvivharisa). FMMS JOURNALS

Resilience: The Key to Navigating Life's Challenges

  Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga (FFF)   Life's no paradise – resources are scarce, competition's tough, and adversity's constant. But it's how we respond that defines us. Resilience is the ability to bounce back, to sweep away trouble and hold firm to gains. I once had a business in my 20s that did well in the short run, but when I sought support from a wealthy relative to expand, I was labelled lazy. I fought back, true to their word I became unpopular. Later, I realised people look at what you've achieved, not what you promise. I refocused, sought trusted support, and bounced back – refuting allegations of laziness. Each challenge's a battle; each win builds confidence. You don't start winning big battles, but small wins accumulate. Employers seek elasticity; vision falls on resilient people. As I was ridiculed and falsely accused, I gained favour with people in good time. Adversity may conquer, but bouncing back is resilience. Life's short. Elastic...

It’s Not The End Of The World

  Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga    This story is based on a true story and I have edited names so that someone is inspired out there. Resilience makes great changes in people's lives, don't commit Suicide     Fadzai sat on the edge of her bed, feeling empty and defeated. She had never felt so alone in her life. Thomas’s brief and dismissive response on the phone had left her reeling. She thought about her daughter, Rungano, who was now misbehaving at school, and how she was struggling to cope with the absence of her father.   Thomas had gone to South Africa for greener pastures leaving Fadzai with their only daughter behind. The plan was to relocate to South Africa as soon as Thomas had settled. In the first six months Thomas supported Fadzai with groceries, school fees and rentals. A shift began after Thomas had started seeing other women in South Africa. Thomas started sending money enough for rentals, school fees and a few groceries. The...

FFF Music Reviews Gata Rinoshura Materu by Ammi Jamanda

  Ammi Jamanda has been keeping this song Gata Rinoshura Materu for more than 2 years in her song books if I remember very well. I will not go too much into this since the song is now available. The demand by music fans is the need to attach the melodies into their lives. Ammi has made it possible to her legion of fans who have always supported her each time she plays with her band. Ammi joined the competitive live club circuit at a very young age but she soldiered on without much attention from important stakeholders. Her previous album faired well though the poor music distribution channels in our country failed her to reach out to the whole country. Music distribution is very important to upcoming musicians as this makes them known. The radio usually plays already popular tunes and this affects the new entries because few requests affect routine airplay. Gata Rinoshura Materu is a song that urges people to persevere in difficult situations as they say the darkest hour is before ...
