In truth, as far back as she exited Winky D’s nest, Ninja Lipsy has been acclaimed for her misdemeanours more than her ability to sing.
Ninja Lipsy Album cover
Well in Lipsy’s head if you can’t have a hit song, you may as well snag some headlines along the way by presenting a hit body.
The dancehall singer surprised us this week when she stripped down for her new single album cover- Ndiri Naughty which she also gave a sample in a facebook video posted on her page.
This is not the first time Lipsy has tried some naughty stuff as she also pulled an embarrassing stunt during Alick Macheso’s album launch, read all about it here.
The song isn’t all that judging from the few seconds she sampled,but so what right,as long as ‘I’m sexy’
Lipsy’s eminent bareness will beyond any doubt pack some social media buzz, however, will she back it up with some genuine substance?
The Legendary reggae band is finally in Harare and is here for what cold be the biggest concert in as many years in Zimbabwe.
The Grammy Award-winning outfit touched down yesterday and 2Kings the Promoters of the show managed to give the press an opportunity to interact with the band and they say they have been longing to come to Zimbabwe and it finally happened.
We too can’t wait for Saturday evening.
Here are our top 5 songs we are looking forward to hearing
1. Don’t Haffi Dread
Probably the favourite of many too, yeah you don’t have to have dread to love Reggae music.
You don’t ha fi dread to be Rasta (Don’t ha fi dread) /This is not a dreadlocks thing /Divine conception of the heart
2. Strictly Roots
This is their biggest career hit song from the Strictly Roots album released on March 31, 2015. It earned the group a Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album. The album topped the Top Reggae Albums chart both in 2015 and 2016
3. Mount Zion Medley
From the Morgan Heritage and Friends: Volume 1 album, Mount Zion Medley features a star line up of performers such as Jah Cure,Bushman,Capleton LMS and Ras Shiloh.
4. Tell Me How Come
Taken from the 2005 album Full Circle, The song looks at the bad state of life and how people are relating to each other specifically in their country of Jamaica. It’s one of those songs that causes you to look deeply at the issues that common black societies are going through.
Tell me how come, there’s so many guns in the street /An’ none a dem gun deh neva mek ya Tell me how come, AIDS is spreading wide / Taking over this sweet paradise of Jamaica
5. I’m Coming Home
What would be a Morgan Heritage concert without one for the lovers? Again from the topping chatting 2005 Full Circle album.
I will let the lyrics speak for themselves
I’m coming home (yeah) There was a time when all I wanted to do Was the only things that mattered to me (yeeah) But when a man and a woman builds their home A man’s gotta do what his family needs him to do
[Chorus:] When I come home everything should be alright So mammy hold on everything will be just fine So I’m coming everything should be alright So baby hold on everything will be just fine
Well,there are a lot of hit songs this band that picking favourites will just be like asking a parent to choose between his favourite children.
Popular ZiFM presenter DJ Eskay is set to leave the Newlands-based Radio Station.
Eskay announced this on an emotional send-off during the Wicked Wednesday show which he co-hosts with Sokostina.
DJ Eskay
The DJ is leaving to join his wife in the Unite States of America, the two wedded in April of 2015.
He ends his 4-year flirtation with the radio station this Sunday during his 6 – 9 pm Show.
He joined ZiFM in 2012 after passing the station auditions and was slotted on a 3am to midnight show for about 2 months until he was moved to prime time and currently had two shows on the Radio.
Eskay’s popularity rose up when he stared hosting open sex discussions on radio and was later on joined by Sokostina.
The two would hold candid talks about sex which included sexual positions,phone sex and oral sex among a whole host of topics.
It’s always difficult to remix a song especially if the original was dope and you still wanna maintain or exceed the first production, well for T-One it seems he nailed the art on the remix.
Tachigwinha remix which dropped late last week had me bumping to it all weekend.
The addition of the trio ofSharky , Ti Gonziand Jungle Kid drew my attention to this particular track and i just discovered one uncelebrated producer by the name McLyne Beats.
The line-up itself is monstrous,Galis Kush on the hook along with verses from Sharky, Jungle Kid and Ti Gonzi appearing on the second hook.
For my money, Sharky absolutely killed it, while on the other hand, Jungle kid showed us that the worlds of Masvingo and Harare aren’t as distant as one might think.
I would say Jungle Kid should wake from whichever jungle he is hiding and give us a full dose of what he is promising, the sick rapper has been dabbling our ears into some great music.
However i would have wanted to hear more because three minutes didn’t quite do justice for my big appettite, but again more rappers would run the risk of sounding like an invite for old friends.
The man himself T-One seems to have had his eye on the newly introduced Best HipHop Verseby the Zim Hip Hop Awards, as his line sound like a clear audition for the nomination.
MTV Base last night announced the final set of nominees for the MTV Africa Music Awards 2016 and Jah Prayzah made the list.
Jah Prayzah
The announcement was made at the Lagos leg of the Road to MAMA on Sunday, October 2, 2016, at the Hard Rock Café.
This is the first time a Zimbabwean gets a nomination for the prestigious awards also known as the MAMAs.
The Watora Mari singer got nominated for the Listeners Choice Award and will battle it out for votes with 20 other top African artists.
Amongst the nominees are Bebe Cool (Uganda), Burna Boy (Nigeria), Prince Kaybee (South Africa) and Yamoto Band (Tanzania)
This might come as an emotional relief to the man who has seen his world almost plunging into darkness following allegations that he was sexually abusing former band member Gonyeti.
This certainly isn’t the first time that the bling king Stunner has gotten his drink on in a song, remember ‘Hatisati Tadhakwa’ featuring Shinso Man?
Stunner
Well, this time, he does it differently, he brings the booze, the bling ,the weed and the women all under one song and video.
You know you have seen a lot of videos but never one like this … The gregarious rapper launched his album in a spectacular star-studded affair on 19 August and we have been anticipating the dissemination of the videos to the works.
This is not the Stunner we know .. this is a different, not your usual 263 type game video. This is African Award winning rapper type of Video.
It would seem from the script that the two, Stunner and Sir Ford are neighbours who are trying to show off to each other on how glamorous their lives are (with the liquor,women and weed)
Stunner on the other hand has the women he used to wish for ‘suggestively washing his Mercedes’ while Sir Ford has his set of hotties doing some type of Yoga thing (Basically both are leaving the life of achievers)
And Stunner calls for more enemies in the song!!!
The video is simple , cutaways of celebs from the launch nodding their heads to the rhythm of the humble rapper ..to girls washing a Benz in a clearly gated community whilst Stunner and Sir Ford start the morning with the alcohol chilling on their mini-lawns. …ka life ke marapper ..Girls, Cars and apparently Beer in the morning..who knew right?
We love the video still getting the hang of the song, though.
We see a view of Cindy, Elton Bryce,GoodChild and Carlos Green on the red carpet during the launch, we also got a full moment with newsbae Rumbi Takawira, Producer Xndr and former Big Brother Housemate Hakeem.
Producer T-Man,ExQ,Kapital K and Ngoni Kambarami also make it to the video and Oh did we mention the cameo from Mrs Chideme and son on the red carpet
She is one of South Africa’s most desired women, Pearl Thusi even has a song entirely dedicated to celebrating her beauty courtesy of Emtee.
Now the gorgeous Pearl is coming to star in your favourite Tv drama Quantico.
On Sunday Season 2 premiere of Quantico closed on an intriguing visual: a woman who previously had just been seen only in passing, crying quietly in the bedroom she now shares with new CIA trainee Alex Parrish.
Pearl Thusi in QUANTICO
That woman turned out to be Pearl Thusi. As we will learn in the next few episodes,Pearl Thusi plays Dayana Mampasi an accomplished human rights lawyer who came to America from Zimbabwe as a teenager.
Unlike Ms Wyatt, however, who volunteered for the FBI, Dayana actually was recruited.
Viewers are now spoilt for some eye candy as we were failing to deal with the flawless that is Priyanka Chopra (Alex Parish) winner of the Miss World 2000 pageant and One of India’s most popular celebrities.
It was all joy on Monday as South Africans took to Twitter to celebrate the success of one of their own.
The hashtag #PearlThusiDaytopped the Twitter trends list for hours.
Coincidentally, Pearl Thusi dates a Zimbabwean Native Robert Marawa who is a presenter on SuperSport

This week seems to have been a bad one for the Mukoko lady,who was earlier slammed by a fan for refusing to take a selfie with her.
The fan has since apologised for her overzealousness.
Diamond, Emtee, Kwesta and Patoranking join previously announced performers Alikiba, Babes Wodumo, Cassper Nyovest, Nasty C, Ycee and Yemi Alade on the giant purpose-built MAMA stage at the Ticketpro Dome, 22 October at the MTV Africa Awards.
