DJ Slice Returns to Zimbabwe: Launching a 5-Star Motel & Reviving Local Music Opportunities

Canada based and one of the pioneers in African music broadcasting DJ Slice has been back home for a month now and he’s been busy setting up projects, exploring collaborations, and even launching new business endeavours.

 

DJ Slice’s recent visit was full of exciting announcements and future plans that signal his commitment to Zimbabwe’s music and entertainment industries.

The main reason for his return? Launching his 5-star motel in Kadoma. This venture isn’t just about hospitality; it’s a project designed to bridge the worlds of entertainment and business.

“It’s all about interlinking the two projects,” Slice explained, referring to his work both as a DJ and business entrepreneur.

“Already a household name in Canada, Slice is now expanding his brand and making strides toward becoming a key player in Zimbabwean entertainment.”

Beyond his new motel, DJ Slice has an even bigger vision in store for Zimbabwe’s music industry.

He’s actively working with fellow musicians to introduce an app that, for the first time, will allow Zimbabwean artists to monetize their fame directly. This innovation could transform the local music scene by creating new revenue streams and giving artists control over their earnings.

Slice has also been vocal about his dream to revive the legendary Slice International, the music group he helped popularize years ago.

While it’s still a work in progress, he’s hopeful and excited, saying, “It’s a chemistry process where it’s gotta come from the bottom and deep willingness from all Slice living UG legends.”

In addition to business and music projects, DJ Slice continues to host his radio show, Africa Radio Show, on Alberta’s 88.5 FM in Canada.

As the founder and presenter, he takes pride in bringing African music to a broader audience, using the platform to elevate artists and connect with fans worldwide. The show serves as a bridge, connecting African culture with international listeners and giving

When asked about rumors that he’s scouting artists to take to Canada, he confirmed, “100% correct. I believe in giving back to my country, and I am a fan of the new sound, be it Dancehall or Hip Hop.”

DJ Slice’s dedication to pushing fresh Zimbabwean talent to new heights could provide a significant boost to the local music industry, opening doors for artists to share their work beyond Zimbabwean borders.

While discussing his support for emerging artists, DJ Slice offered some invaluable advice: “I just want to urge my youngsters not to grow big-headed before they make it anywhere. Stay away from drugs—that’s your deepest downfall. If your talent is real, then it doesn’t need any enhancement.”

He emphasized the need for professionalism, urging young artists to surround themselves with proper management rather than mere groupies. “Sharp iron sharpens another iron,” he said.

“If you surround yourself with groupies and expect to reach the next level, then you need to reconsider your circles.”

He also called on established artists to step up, offering genuine support to up-and-comers. “Established artists need to support the new talent, guide, and collaborate with them at no cost.

Never charge your fellow struggling brother and later on go public saying you support new talent.”

In a powerful statement, he challenged big names like Cheso, Jah Prayzah, Winky, Killer T, and Freeman to join forces and approach the Ministry to create a more functional music industry.

“United, they can stand,” he said. “Based on their legendary statuses, they have a role to play in conducting workshops and paving the way forward.”

With his ventures and continued passion for Zimbabwean music, DJ Slice is not just making a comeback—he’s setting a new standard for local entertainment and business.

This multifaceted artist and entrepreneur is proof that you can build a career that spans continents, blending music, business, and a deep commitment to home.
