FRESH ZimDancehall artiste, Tinashe “TinTin” Chawagarira has hit the ground running releasing 18 singles with highly charged lyrics that are rocking the streets of Harare’s Kuwadzana Extension high-density suburb.
TinTin has, however, decried lack of sponsorship and limited airplay saying they are thwarting his visibility.
To break into the cutthroat Zimdancehall turf, TinTin has strategically crafted his songs to appeal to a wide audience that includes religious people, environmentalists and love birds.
So far, tracks like Chakupisa, Ndichamupa Zvese and Ishe Ndidzikinure have sent tongues waging.
In the single Chakupisa, TinTin emphasises the need to understand the effects of climate change and take it seriously. Ndichakupa Zvese urges people to take heed of climate change to preserve humanity and create a safer ecosystem were love thrives. Ishe Ndidzikinure is an appeal to God to guide and protect humanity during the transitional period of climate change.
The tracks were produced by Munyaradzi “Loyal Beats” Kativhu of BigYards Music, Chil4Real and DKT.
Speaking on the singles Loyal Beats said: “I want to praise TinTin for coming up with a strategic mix of his singles that target a wider audience spectrum.”
TinTin applauded his Kuwadzana Extension neighbourhood for supporting him.

“I want to thank Kuwadzana Extension for their unwavering support for my music, though somehow I feel that some radio stations are downplaying the efforts and works of up-and-coming artists by limited airplay in their programming,” he said.
