Kinnah, an admirer of Jamaican artistes in the mould of Vibes Kartel, Mavado and Busy Signal, launched his music career in 2000 and has since become a household name due to his ability to compose hit songs among them Mwari Wedenga, Zheti, Dai Mabatana, Vari badness, Kupera Tsoka, Wings from Jah and Mai Mwana that conveys several themes ranging from peace and solidarity which are receiving fair airplay on local radio stations while his shows are attracting favourable crowds.
He got much exposure in the Mbare suburb where most of the award-winning dancehall artists were bred, with Chill Spot Records providing him with the much-needed exposure.
