While the music remains firmly rooted in chimurenga we also hear catchier melodies, prominent horns and more straightforward beats. However, don't think for a second Mapfumo has forgotten his roots. He's just doing what all great musicians do experimenting, mixing genres and generally enjoying himself. This is a fun, upbeat record and it may be one of Mapfumo's best. This album has, despite the name and the picture of Ambuya Nehanda on the cover, nothing to do with Chimurenga music as I understand it. When I think of what the second Chimurenga actually was, I do not think of the Rhumba and Reggae pop that is on this album. Backed by his band, Blacks Unlimited, Thomas Mapfumo has been at the cutting edge of the political struggle in his native Zimbabwe for over 20 years, even as he's become a major figure on the world music scene.
