TEHN Diamond, will this Friday (January 17) release his brand new single ‘Simudza Gumbo’ featuring Dhadzad via www.iamTEHN.com.
NewZimbabwe.com can exclusively reveal that the first single to be lifted from the Harare based rapper’s eagerly anticipated debut , is an afro-centric take, through a Hip Hop lens, on the infamous JFK quote – “think not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.”
Produced by one of Zimbabwe’s finest, Take Fizzo, high energy synths and 808 drums carry this lyrical call to attention, imploring the listener to get up and do something to shape their future.
Fizzo said “the success of working with TehN on songs like “Fall Back” and “Happy” drove us to just try and one up ourselves and at the same time – tweaking our Zwagga sound.”
This blazing hot banger, ‘Simudza Gumbo’ is an empowering anthem serving as the first instalment from his forthcoming record.
The album ‘The Perfect TehN’ set for release later this year is the tipping point in what has been a long road of under the line releases. With mix tapes, several high-profile features and a music video award to his name, TehN Diamond is a true reflection of the indie artist of today.
Coming off the successful release of the joint project ‘Few Kings – The Feeling Ain’t Fair’, this is the perfect time to forge ahead as a solo artist.
