Sungura star Alick Macheso and his Orchestra Mbeirkwazvo seem to be on a roll since the launch of their latest album Tinosvitswanashe.
And off the chart topping album Macheso or simply Extrabasso to some, dropped one of the much anticipated videos — Kutadzirana.
And for the first time since he lurched onto the mainstream music scene, Kutadzirana is a brilliant video where Extrabasso came out of his shell.
Previously, Extrabasso and his Orchestra Mberikwazvo would produce downright lousy videos if not mediocre.
But on Kutadzirana, the man of song did justice from the costumes, setting to even the production he pushed limits.
It is a big anomaly that a musician of Macheso’s calibre had gone for a long time without producing videos to his musical masterpieces.
Kutadzirana produced by multi-award winning Vusa Blaqs who was behind most of Jah Prayzah’s award winning videos, it was his first time working with Extrabasso.
And Vusa Blaqs really brought out his magic on Kutadzirana giving viewers some interesting visuals.
All things being equal the video should be in the running for Best Video of the Year.
Macheso on his part thanked fans for their support over the years and pledged to give his best in appreciation of the love and unwavering loyalty
“Thank you all for the love and support. We have come this far because of you and we are happy that you continue to rally behind your band which we have aptly named band revanhu (the people’s band),” Macheso said.
Macheso also promised another new video in the month of November following the success of his first video in years aptly titled Kutadzirana.
Indeed the man had sinned against his fans but the good music and quality videos should serve as a good apology.
He has repaid his loyal fans’ trust.
