Mhere grows in stature

rehearsed for the event.

“I expect a full house and with the grace of the Lord I hope to dish out a good performance.
“I will take the opportunity to preach the word of God through music,” he said.

Mhere is expected to churn out his hits such as “Favour,” “Vimba naJehova,” “Chipostora” and “Areka”, among others.
Ever since releasing his album “Anoita Minana,” Mhere’s music has been rocking the clubs, watering holes and commuter omnibuses. Initially, people mis­took his product to that of popular Mutare gospel musician Blessing Shumba in terms of similarity in voice, and music arrangement.

It is, however, the messages on the tracks that have touched the hearts of many. The song “Vimba NaJehovha” talks about the deceptive nature of humankind. In it, the artiste urges peo­ple to invest their trust in God alone.

“Usavimbe nemunhu mukoma, munhu anokurasisa/Judas wandaidya naye, ndiye wazondirasisa,” he sings in the song. “Chipostora” urge people to seek wisdom from their forebearers as well as from the wise words of the earli­est apostoles and prophets. “Munongotichengeta” praises the Lord for guarding over His people in both trying and good times.

“Favour” is about how opportunities, come not from fel­low human beings but from God. “Favour haitengwe nemari/Favour inouya naMwari,” he sings. Then to those who have been won­dering what the true meaning of the word ark means, then they should listen to the track “Areka”.
