ZIMBABWE is home to several gifted musicians who perform a variety of genres.
That being said, it appears that Zimdancehall chanter Killer T, born Kelvin Kusikwenyu but also popularly known in showbiz as Chairman, is the hot topic right now, thanks to his most recent offering Kana Ndanyura.
This is a song that explores the blindness of a person who has drowned in love and feels powerless to resist how they feel, although others outside the relationship might be seeing things differently.
This is not the first time that Killer T has made love songs; he did some in the past that wowed fans and made waves across the country.
This time, the musician has successfully won over fans once again with his latest track.
NewsDay Weekender Life & Style took a trip down memory lane to revisit some of the musician’s love songs that inspired love and evoked emotions when one is going through heartbreaks.
These are the songs that made it to most people’s playlists.

The song made waves across the country when it was released in 2018 as part of the Mashoko Anopfuura album.
It revolved around a man refusing to give up on his love pursuits and could do anything for his love.
The song also unpacked the popular Shona adage “Chinonzi regera ndechirimumaoko”, a phrase which sums up how difficult it is to instruct the heart to stop loving someone.
Hazvigone
Released in 2019 as a part of Hope Dzehumambo’s singles collection, the song encouraged love through communication, trust and forgiveness to create enduring relationships.
It also inspired loved ones to refuse to let misunderstandings force them to part ways.
The musician emphasised that if they continued to water their love, it would grow and flourish and produce positive outcomes.

Another song that was popular during its time which revolved around a man who was so devoted to his partner that he would do anything for her, even if it meant going against all odds.
Ndizviponde Here
In addition to Killer T’s romantic and love-themed songs, it is worth examining some of his other songs that effectively stirred up feelings and helped listeners relate to their own experiences with heartbreaks and disappointments.
Ndizviponde Here was another song that the musician poured emotions into.
It explored how men become suicidal in an attempt to prove their love for the next person.
It revolved around a man who was drowning in relationship troubles and was unable to express his love to the person he loved because he was often misunderstood.
The musician did, however, emphasise that people should not force love if it is not working and should feel free to leave a relationship when necessary.
