UK fans Knocked and Stunned into 2012
By Michael Chipato
Nox Guni and Desmond Chideme aka Stunner wound up their series of gigs in Dunstable and London on New Year’s Eve with sensational performances in Birmingham at the Drum as revellers embraced 2011 with oozing music from two of Zimbabwe’s top urban maestros.
After a month long musical marathon that saw the artists competitively pelt tune after tune ranging from Wenera, Ndinonyara and Wandinoda to Godo and Stayera UK had a chance to club in a truly Zimbabwean style.
Nox knocked into the hearts of his established and fresh legion of fans hearts as Stunner stunned many with his versatile rap from the heart of Zimbabwe. The two preformed a memorable gig on the eve that the hit Wenera scooped the Video of the Year position whilst Winky D ‘Bigman’ ft Lipsy froze on number two with the Expandables breathing closely on 3rd position in the video categories on PowerFM. Stunner and Baba Shupi’s Godo triumphed as the number one hit on Zimbabwe’s Power FM Top 100 for 2011! Ngonidzashe Kambarami and Alishias Musimbe racked the second spot in the charts with Wobvira and Maskiri’s -Wenera feat Nox and Chagwa Black on third position. As a matter of current supremacy, reinforcement to Stunner’s musical Tazoita Cash Records musical dictum, ‘We lead, Others Follow’, has been proved!
Zim RnB star Nox tweeted with ecstasy ‘…its official....video of the year is WENERA. Big up to the video director: Chagwa Black, big up to Maskiri aka Alishias Musimbe for such a great composition. Big up to the late TBA the Playboy for producing such a platinum hit’. Music producer TBA died in a tragic accident in October and this success is part of his legacy beyond the grave! TBA was known for his great work including kick-starting urban grooves in 2001 at That Squad Studios
Speaking after the Birmingham gig Nox dubbed the shows ‘worth the archives’, whichever way it is looked at these young artists currently appear unstoppable as qualified by their supremacy on Zimbabwe’s top 2011 charts!
Happy New Year!!
