R&B singer Trevor Dongo has quite an interesting history.
He is the first born in a family of six children 27 September and at the age of 2, Trevor he already could read and write music.
This is what you get to hear when you play his latest release titled Born In Highfield, one of Harare’s populace ghettoes but endowed with talent.
Trevor Dongo is a sucker for love but oddly enough, even though he is good at love sings surprisingly he quickly falls in and out of love.
Born In Highfield is a melodious album that will light up your mood at any given time.
The album has given Trevor Dongo or Trevor D to his fans an opportunity to come out of his comfort zone and share his musical exploits.
He gets flirty, playful, funny and cozy but on the whole the album has some chill vibe to it from start to finish.
There are amazing collaborations which again have given the music that edge over his previous recordings from Jah Prayzah on Mutsamvi, to Bryan K on Better To Fall, and Sani Makhalima on Everyday too Hwai alongside King Shaddy and Trey XL.
Each song is different but sort of peaks the tempo and he deliberately engaged different artists to ensure his fans have a lot to choose from and step to.
It is not easy for an artist to come with an acceptable album but Trevor Dongo pulled it through with much ease.
He sings in English, Shona and other minority languages especially on More Than A Night alongside Namadingo.
There is a great deal of joy, pain and lamentations on the album but again at the end of the day it is good music.
Fans will enjoy the music long after it stops playing.
