Mixed feelings over Life of Muvhimi
Chitungwiza-born rapper Voltz JT released an album called Life of Muvhimi on various platforms over the weekend. The much-awaited 10-track album is getting rave reviews on social media sites. His latest offering is a boon totheZimHipHop genre that is on the rise.
The intro looks at the Life of hustlers and dealers. He explains how sometimes they have to endure many losses “one day uchanovhima wodzoka usina chinhu”. On “Dollar Deals” he throws shade at artists that buy views for their content. On “uri wangu” he urges viewers to stream his music on Spotify or YouTube instead of sharing music via Bluetooth. He makes peace with past pains in “Mangwana”. He ropes in Nigel the Slick Pastor in an Interlude where he is advised to self-reflect instead of blaming someone other people.
Voltz JT goes at Holy Ten over an incident involving Kimberly Richards in the track “Rerukai”. Tamy Moyo features on “Kwedu Tiri Two” where he says he prefers a more private life. In “Pfuurai Nekuno Part 2” he talks about his principles as an artist. Galis Kush features on Kure in a mellow love song.
Some belief it is a perfect album.
