Sungura proponent Solo Moyo has released his latest singe titled Sorry and it is a scorcher proving critics wrong that he is not a copycat.
The diminutive Moyo expounds in the hit song that he is nowhere near a carbon copy to anybody, suffice to say, talent cannot be restricted.
In the danceable song, the stylish musician voices that critics should accept the reality that music transcends appreciation levels. It is relative. He adds that there’s no curse in talent similarity save to appreciate what is gifted to an artist.
He also voices concern over those who want to dictate what style musicians should follow from the armchair.
“I have problems with people who think l’m here to copy anyone. I have my style of music and it’s up to the people to judge. I have to say it point blank that l have no business copying anyone. Fans must understand the dynamism of music and how it evolves. Sorry, pun intended, to those who take my message with sour grapes,” he said with a trademark cheeky chuckle.
His crisp charming voice defies the message he puts across within the veins of stable bass and poignant rhythm guitars.
The lead guitar is so well infused as to lay temptation to the ear.
The Kutinya Express frontman pacifies fans and critics that they need to put heads together for a common good in the arts industry.
Based in Kadoma, the lyricist appeals to critics that they should at least learn to embrace his philosophy and any perceived attack in his lyrics is unfortunate.
The musician has given music fans something to smile and sing along to during this Covid-19 pandemic and festive season going forward.
Critics allege Moyo is riding on the legacy of the late namesake Tongai.
On the other hand, his music lovers enjoy fulfilment from Solo’s music who churns out songs in this genre which has laid roots so deep that it cannot be wished away. Neither can a single musician monopolize the sungura beat, at least according to Sorry.
