Ti Gonzi just dropped the video to Zvenyu and it features Bhutisi

Ti Gonzi dropped his video for the yesteryear hit Zvenyu. We had no idea that the video would be out or even that they would be a video.

We had all but forgotten about the Hit but Ti Gonzi decided to remind us with a  “visual” of Zvenyu. The beauty of it is in its simplicity, several cameos including the P.O Box Reloaded superstar Bhutisi, who come up singing a couple of bars from the Song.

The rest of the scenes are of Ti Gonzi in very colorful ensemble with a couple of his squad and him surrounded by news clippings (Ti Gonzi arrested for stealing 2 keys , Zvenyu vanotenga mabhodoro isu tichingonhonga?)

It’s a good Video but we feel it is long overdue , Simbi inoda kurohwa ichapisa …But Thank You for the Video Ti Gonzi

If you haven’t been infected by the “Sorry Bieber” fever then you really need to stop reading this article . The Song and the video are a Pop culture phenomenon, the choreography alone has resulted in “Remakes” and Parodies .

The choreography sticks to the original one but it has that African flare that OOMPH you only get when you are built for rhythm.

Have you watched Juwela’s new Video? Here is what we Think!

You probably have seen it by  now the Terms and Conditions video which erbody and their ex-bestie is talking about.

Juwela pulled a surprising stunt of changing from Zim dancehall to Afro-pop …and  it seems to suit her, her first offering of this type of music seems to go down better than the dancehall tip anyway  back to the video .

 

1) Imagery – We love the  white background reminds us of  a certain single ladies song  including the  two back up camera that  Ju Ju has on the  video . The concept was  a bit here and there …is it her killing the dance moves? Or her and that Kings bodyguard fellow? (Dj Gwyte is that  you) We preferred the  scene where you  looked like the TOTAL African DIVA you  are .

 

This we loved!!
This we loved!!

 

2) Choreography – We can see where you were trying to take this Juwela , we really  do  but we don’t think the  girls behind got the  memo.

Individually they killed but together eish its another article . We smell the  hand of John Cole in that choreography but he must be too busy with  Mukoko to claim them Dances huh .

 

3) Fashion – This was a rough one, the team argued back and forth over  this  some saying that the  African print worn by the dancers was a waste of thread and others saying it was Courageous of you to try and and pull a Beyoncé

But we All agreed that the  Yellow goddess dress was the SUMMIT of  all the outfits. We really don’t know what to say about the  racoon/Goth look we are not fashion forward like that .

 

4) The song – is pure fire we  need to hear it across all radio stations

 

All in  all we like the  video ,  the song is definitely on our favourite list . We love how totally confident you are in  front of the camera can’t wait  to see you perform. You have the IT factor that will give all these others a run for their money

Watch the video below.

Christopher-Martin

Chris Martin shot to instant stardom shortly after winning the coveted Digicel Rising Stars title in 2005, and has ever since, released one hit song after another.

What makes us excited about this gig is the fact that Red Rose Entertainment is bringing into the country a proven hit maker,someone who has more hit songs than you can count.

We will be graced by one of the world’s biggests stars.

Tickets have already been slashed from $15 to $10 for a general admission and the crooner is touching down at the Harare International Airpot on Wednesday.

We tried to come up with 5 top songs we loved ,what a difficult task we gave ourselves but we managed to come up with this.

 

Here are 5 songs we are looking forward to soaking our souls in

 

Baby I love You – A sweet lovers’ selection by Christopher Martin on DJ Frass’ Diamonds and Gold Riddim.

Cheaters Prayer – I know a lot of guys who have made this prayer and still are. Very controversial prayer Chris Martin made there but we love the song nonetheless.

Let her go – This reggae rendition is what we call PERFECTION, it makes you feel the vibe of the song as if you were having  a conversation.

Paper Lovin – Off the Cardiac Bass riddim and probably the best on that riddim, the message was as rude as it is true – If you can’t love me now,don’t love me later ,when my later is much greater.

Girlfriends – Off the Heart and Soul riddim, produced and released in 2011 but still as relevant and exciting as it was then.

Game of Thrones Season 6: Another Unmissable Season

Some clues and guesses from the Game of Thrones Season 6 provides for an unmissable drama action.

Game-Thrones-Season-6-Pictures

The latest trailor also has us guessing of an unusual alliance between Sansa (Sophie Turner) and Davos (Liam Cunningham),these two appear on another scene in the same room.

 

How we left off on Season 5

There were some shocking developments at the end of Season 5, including Jon Snow’s bloody fate at the hands of Castle Black mutineers, Daenerys’ near-demise at the fighting pits of Meereen, and Cersei’s public humiliation on the streets of King’s Landing – survivors from all parts of Westeros and Essos regroup to press forward, inexorably, towards their uncertain individual fates.

 

How its looking on Season 6

In addition to a poster featuring a bloodied Jon Snow and a few shots in the HBO end of year promotional video, Game of Thrones has released the first big teaser for Season 6 of the hit drama, which features voiceover from Bran, not to mention another creepy teaser set in the House of Black and White.

By the time we got the first footage from the new season, the showrunners were adamant that Jon Snow is dead, and we even get to see him laid out on a slab of brick.

Season 6 will see familiar faces forging  new alliances to bolster their strategic chances at survival, while there will be new characters that will emerge to challenge the balance of power in the east, west, north and south.

Winter is definitly coming.

Catch the all new Season on DStv’s M-Net Edge on Monday 25 April at 03:00 (Express from the U.S.) and Thursday 28 April at 21:00 (Prime Time)
