Trinta naMaFaya Release New Video.....


By Michael Chipato
He is versatile and his country has savoured his musical artistry in an understated way, yet Trinta is ready to explore the untrodden. He honed his musical chops in Harare before relocating to Joburg.

                                                      Trinta and MaFayah.'Chikuru Rudo'

Born in a family of three in Mbare and raised in Mufakose, Trinta as he is affectionately known is married and is a rising force in the dancehall musical genre.





                                                   TRINTA & MA-FAYA -HWANI 
Trinta released his first single in 2002, by then still doing 0’level. The song Tamari which was a hit on Zimbabwean radio stations was followed by another single Kana ndirere in 2004. In 2006 Trinta released Nguva refu. At that time Trinta did another single that featured Nox and Blush, and Ngoni. Amongst the many artists that he has rubbed shoulders with in the business are the likes of  Alexio, Nox, Blush, Cindy ,Buffalo, Chilla Bee, Lucious, Freeman, Teererayi, Manex only to mention few.
His first album in 2007 called Level One has 12 tracks, and all songs were produced by Macdee. Speaking to from his South African base Trinta said ‘My second album with my Honeyvybz was released in 2009 titled Nguva refu; my next album had the track which I have done a video for video called Hwani, and it was directed by Chagwa Black. 
                                                          Trinta: Wandinoda
Finally to all my fans ndokudayi mose (I love you) thank you’. Born and raised in a Christian family ‘Trinta’, Freddy Mazivanjira is a proud religious family man. Most of his tunes bear a didactic dimension and entertain.

Michael Chipato is a social and development scientist currently living in Birmingham.Over the years issues pertaining social inequalities, dictatorship, political oppression and gender disparities have been his research focus.As an artist, journalist and academic Michael's philosophy of life is greatly influenced by Léopold Sédar Senghor (9 October 1906 – 20 December 2001) ... a Senegalese poet, politician, and cultural theorist who served as the first president of Senegal (1960–1980). Senghor was the first African to sit as a member of the Académie française. He was also the founder of the political party called the Senegalese Democratic Bloc. He is regarded by many as one of the most important African intellectuals of the 20th century. Senghor created the concept of Négritude, an important intellectual movement that sought to assert and to valorize what they believed to be distinctive African characteristics, values, and aesthetics..He does not condone oppression and violence in any shape or form.
