Description

Zimbabwean artist Oliver Mtukudzi's commitment to confronting injustice in defiance of Robert Mugabe's repressive regime throughout his 35-year career has made him an international icon. His unique sound, nicknamed "Tuku music" by his fans, combines traditional African instruments like mbira and marimba with soulful and energetic acoustic guitar. Mtukudzi's lyrics, which notably rely on innuendo, reflect his philosophy that one must communicate figuratively if one is to be understood universally. Part entertainer and part educator, Mtukudzi is a powerful musician with a message. - Lily Stoicheff sanjose.com
