Kazani rose to fame as one of the country’s most talked about local drama comedians, playing supporting roles in series such as NdiGringo Chete, Vana Avo, Zuku, Togara Sei, Toita Sei and the recent Akanga Nyimo Avangarara.

His six-track debut offering is a fusion of pansula and African traditional music put together in comical lyrics and yet sending a positive message to listeners.

“I composed every track and although it is all comic, I have a good message on the practice of good morals and conduct,” Kazani said.

He said his major calling was being a comedian, but he felt it was important for him to spread his wings into other arts genres.

Kazani added that although a lot of people did not take him seriously because of his usual comic characters in local dramas, his latest album had a serious message that people ought to give an ear to.

“The album was inspired by my day to day life experiences and the people who I come across in life, mainly hypocrites who indulge in severe moral decadence,” he said.

Kazani said his penetration into the music industry did not mean he would drop his acting career“I have so far had live performances in Chinhoyi and Harare. I will soon be performing in various parts of the capital before reaching to other towns and cities nationwide,” Kazani added.

He said comedy lovers should look forward to his latest offering and more future drama series.
