Magacha unveils new album ‘Mapostori’

that revere the Lord and call for Christians to strengthen their faith in face of calamities and challenges.

Some of the tracks include “NdiJesu”, “Mapostori”, “Satani Imbavha”, “Tinopa Mbiri” and “Pemberai”. Sabastian did not use his musical expertise only on this album, but he roped in several colleagues, among them Sharon Manyonganise, Mudiwa, and the Zim Praise choir.
Produced at Extol Records by Joseph Madziyire, who also doubles up as Sabastian’s manager, “Mapostori” promises to redefine gospel music as it displays a unique blend of pure musical talent and youthful energy which are characteristic of Sabastian’s own music genre, Saba music.

The album opens with the track “NdiJesu”, which was co-written by Sabastian and his manager, Joseph.
The track celebrates the good nature of the Lord who, by his hand, raises people who are considered foolish by our society, to the same level with kings and princes.
The song underscores that it is only Jesus Christ who heals people and as Christians we should call on his name if faced by difficulties in life.

The title track, “Mapostori”, encourages Christians or “Mapostori” to be firm in their march of faith in order to claim their inheritance which was prepared for them by Christ in heaven.
The song cites examples of heroes of faith among them Abraham, who according to the scriptures displayed his faith through many different ways, one of which being his journey to the Promised Land, Canaan, which he undertook after receiving a command to do so by God.

The track also highlights other biblical characters such as Peter who among other apostles endured the march of faith, an experience which witnessed many people who had been sick receiving healing from God while others who could not walk were able to walk again.
The track “Satani Imbavha”, which is number three on the album, stresses that Satan is both a deceiver and a thief who steals everything that God had designed to be enjoyed by men.

According to the message on this track, Satan is responsible for such problems, which include poverty, disease and death which only existed after the devil deceived men to sin against God.
The song also stresses that Jesus Christ, who is God’s only son, was chosen by God among the family of heavenly angels to die for the human race in order to give us eternal life.

“Tinopa Mbiri” features the Zim Praise choir and Mudiwa whose inclusion on the track infuses some hip-hop flavour to the song.
The song puts across the message that we should glorify God who receives and blesses us without requiring anything material from his people.
In this song Sabastian says God is unchanging and that although we are sinners and have faced many other different situations in life, God will still be able to receive us if we return to him.

The album closes with a celebration song titled “Pemberai”, which features Tinashe Magacha, Sabastian’s younger brother.
In this song, Sabastian urges Christians to celebrate Jesus Christ who gave people victory over physical disabilities while other signs of blessings include weddings, marital bliss and business success that Christians across enjoy.

In an interview, Sabastian Magacha who recently turned 28 this month, says his new album is better than his previous works.
“In ‘Mapostori’, my fans should expect to find a new Saba, a very improved and a great Saba music. I’m also working on a live DVD project which will be released soon,” said Sabastian.
