It first came as a surprise the first time I heard the first three lines of Platinum Prince’s latest track called Ndeipi yenyu President. At first I thought it was a diss song to His Excellency President Robert Mugabe as he sang, “Ndeipi yenyu baba vaBona/ Ndanzwa vanhu vachiseka kuti makadonha.”
Normally artists in Zimbabwe are “afraid” to sing songs with such kind of lyrics mocking the president.
Anyway, it seems as if Platinum Prince was only trying to lure the attention of his fans as he kinda mocks the president. In this song the dancehall chanter will not be mocking the president as such but will be letting the president know about his worries since Zimbabwe attained its independence.
Platinum Prince talks about the socio-economic problems which the people of Zimbabwe are facing on a daily basis. Some of the issues he mentions in his song are the economic problems which the nation is facing as well as current job cuts issue which has seen more than twenty thousand people lose their jobs in the past four weeks or so. In his first verse he sings, “Makatibata bho kubva 1980/ Izvezvi ndakura ndavekuma 20/ Asi honai economy president/ Mabasa hakuna handina kana cent.”
Furthermore, the Ndururani star continues to talk about the social problems which are faced by the nation. In his second verse he talks about the corruption and mismanagement of resources which has been going on in the local city councils as he sings, “Kanzuru haisi kushanda yaka easa/ Makamboenda here kuChitungwiza/ Masuweji akasara kwese vanhu vakufamba vachijamba kunge hwiza.”
This song is one of those songs which shows that the people are now tired of what is going on in Zimbabwe in all sectors of life. Anyway, Platinum Prince continues to give respect to the president for what he has done in the past. He also makes some jokes as always as sings, “Chimbondipai tip/ Munonwira bhawa ripi/ Mozoenda neni handichade hwahwa huri cheap.”
In a nutshell, this song is crazy, you need to have it on your playlist as it is one of those tracks which will make you laugh your lungs out.
