GOSPEL musician Fungisai Zvakavapano Mashavave believes the ability to adapt and evolve has enabled her to stay relevant for more than two decades in the fast lane of the entertainment industry.
She has just released her new album ‘Hupenyu’ recently.
She said the album is a mixed bag of feel-good songs meant to touch different aspects of life.
The album has songs like ‘Guka’, ‘Fara’, ‘Huyai Tifare’, ‘Ndega Handigone’, ‘Nhai Mwari Seiko’ and a rendition of ‘Tichamuwona,’ featuring Mwenje Mathole.
The gospel songstress said her projects have been unique throughout her 24 years in the industry.

“The versatility and the ability to evolve with generations so I can offer them what appeals to them is something that has made me stay relevant throughout these years.
“The gift to understand that audiences come from different walks of life, and have different tastes in music, makes it easy to serve them all adequately.
“Sadly, that versatility and creativity has often been misinterpreted as confusion when, in actual fact, it is the wisdom that has kept me abreast for the past 24 years.”
She added:
“All my projects are unique to themselves and they have a specific target audience as such I could never compare them.
“Some present as singles whilst others are albums just to keep abreast with current trends of releasing music.
“My current offering is sizzling hot and ready for serving on all social media platforms and online music platforms.”
The songstress said ‘Guka’ addresses substance use which is part of “her ongoing developmental social work projects concerned with the eradication of drugs and substance use among the youths in Zimbabwe.”
‘Fara’ and ‘Huyai Tifare’ encourage joy, peace and happiness with ‘Huyai Tifare’ borrowing from ‘Makomborero’.
‘Ndega Handigone’ and ‘Nhai Mwari Seiko’ are just prayers. – (@hmetro)
