adminThe official release date for the 13-track CD is 10 December, but the album is already selling online.
Bhebhe said “What inspired me to name my album Ichokwadi is the fact that I see God in my life and all that I do.
“Each time I minister the song it feels totally brand new and I am reminded of all God has brought me through.”
The album is a dance offing with his first-fruits Joyous track Tambira Jehovah. However, Bhebhe dishes out the two popular tracks in a fresh style.
Bhebhe has also included songs like Tokwira Makomo, Totenda Kunaka, Namata and a Zulu praise chorus mix.
He has featured his Joyous colleague Nhlanhla Mwelase, popular for belting out the track O Le Fika Laka in Joyous 12.
His own composition Thel’ Umoya looks set to grip the airwaves.
The Bulawayo-born muso revealed that the song was birthed out of a dream.
“I just woke up in the middle of the night with a melody in my heart and in my dream I was standing in a stadium full of people in what appeared to be a concert, with my hands stretched towards the heavens I opened my mouth and that song came out. As always, I quickly woke, jumped up and recorded the melody at once.”
The man popularly known as MK also included Instrument Of Worship, a track which was composed and once recorded by Erica Masego Dube.
“I particularly love that song as it is so relevant in this season where I seek God’s grace even more to make me a pure and useful vessel in the Kingdom of God.
“It’s a song that really ministers to the core of my heart,” he said. The album is a balance between praise and worship and will showcase the other side of Bhebhe that his Joyous fans are yet to see.
He will mainly sell his album on digital music platforms like amazon, itunes and cd baby.
“My decision to ensure that my music is available on online stores is because I am very aware that I have a huge following in all parts of the world, so this is to at least make sure that they too may enjoy the album without having to ask their relatives to buy the copies this side and post them.”
His desire is that his music “brings healing to the broken hearted and life to the dead”.
“I have prayed hard about it and I know that God has already taken care of the rest. I poured my heart and soul into the project and I believe that it will change lives all across the world for the better. I have already received orders for more than 3 000 copies before the album has been released,” he said.
The Bulawayo-born star considers Zimbabwe his main market despite endearing himself with multitudes of fans in South Africa where he is based.
