The musician said he has done his homework and he will leave everything to his fans.

"People will be surprised by this product and that is why we are not saying much about it for now," he said.

This publication understands that he has worked with award winning producer Oskid on some of the songs and dendera musician Suluman Chimbetu features on one of the songs.

A massive album launch has been lined up at the Harare International Conference Centre on Friday.

Several musicians that include Alick Macheso, Peter Moyo, Suluman Chimbetu and Tinashe Magacha are set to perform at the event.

Event organiser Cossy Rules said they have done all the groundwork for the launch and people should just expect fireworks as the musician drops a 'bombshell'.

"He took his time to come up with that album and there was need for us to come up with a massive launch," he said.

Contrary to Watsapp message that said the street launch has been cancelled the Kadoma businessman said it was going ahead and people should come in their numbers to support the great works by Zhakata.
