UNDISCOURAGED by physical disability, and well known in the creative industry as nktinashe, Tinashe is an upcoming hip hop artist based in Mbalabala. He ventured into the music industry in 2015 and he mentions that he is more interested and enjoys the writing part in music.
Suffice to say, this area involves immense talent, skills and expertise in an individual where high commitment and dedication to pursue an assignment is highly sought, and from the look of things, Tinashe perfectly fits in that crop.
“I do hip hop trap, a stylish kind of sound which is more advanced but tapped from the traditional hip hop genre. It is a new school type of hip hop music that originates from the United States of America. I also enjoy watching comedies and talent shows such as the America’s Got Talent and AGT”, says the artist in great need of proper recording facilities and a music promoter.
The emerging artist acknowledges that he faces challenges in his music pursuit, but these do not at all hinder him from being productive as he aspires to be one of the most renowned hip hop trap musicians globally.
The apparently ambitious young man adds that he has never despised himself because of his condition.
“I have never looked down on myself, I love myself the way I am and I live by the motto that I can do just anything that a so-called abled person can do. I pride in perseverance”, says the artist who also longs for a recording encounter with renowned, Harare-based DJ Oskid.
Tinashe calls for publicity of his art, fortunately an area that the Creatives magazine is focusing on, talent publicity using digital podiums.
“It is very difficult for me to record and I have no one who can promote my music, I need recognition for possible opportunities in my music career,” he adds.
Tinashe is thankful for the support he receives from his community where people appreciate his art and assist him here and there in acquiring skills related to music production. So far he has only managed to showcase his works in the community where he lives and on his social media accounts.
He hopes that one day his music will be played on local and international radio stations as long as he receives the much-needed assistance on how this is done, music marketing and promotion on radio.
Disability is not inability. He is physically challenged by not cognitive wise and so change maker those who do wise decision to better themselves and empower every soul around them for human factor development in two forms the matter and the spirit/soul. He is a winner he hasn’t just crossed the finishing line but the journey has commenced “a journey of a thousand miles begins with one Step” @ Sir Ndachie ” it is not the thousand steps that make you win the race but just a single step to cross the winning line.” Aluta continua
