Tamy Moyo shines with new album bold, reflecting on a year of success and artistic growth

Tamy Moyo

Tamy Moyo has been on an impressive journey in 2024, marked by the release of her highly anticipated third album, *Bold*. The album showcases her evolution as an artist and her deep-rooted experience in the music industry, delivering a powerful blend of well-crafted songs and compelling vocal performances.

Moyo’s musical journey began at a tender age of seven, and by 10, she was already performing professionally. With early mentorship from iconic Zimbabwean musicians such as Oliver Mtukudzi and Chiwoniso Maraire, Moyo’s career was set on a promising trajectory. Her first singles, “Celebrate Your Life” and “African Beat,” were released when she was just 14. At 18, she released the album *Rollercoaster*, which included the hit song “Ndibereke.” Her second album, *Bvudzi Jena*, came out in 2021, further establishing her place in the industry.

For her latest project, *Bold*, Moyo aimed to craft a sound that diverged from her previous works. “My goal going into this project was to establish a sound that was different from all these other projects that I’ve done before,” she explains. This approach involved stepping back from the hands-on role she had in earlier albums and allowing others to contribute, including Jah Prayzah, who wrote the track “Chinono.” Moyo describes *Bold* as a celebration of fearlessness and authenticity. “It’s about being fearless and headstrong. There’s a little bit of sass and attitude in the lyrical content,” she says. The album encourages listeners to embrace their truth and live fully, reflecting Moyo’s own personal growth and realizations.

One of the standout moments of the year for Moyo was the release of “Kelly Kelvedhura” in March. This upbeat track, featuring Zimbabwean dancehall artist Master H, was described as a transitional song that captured youthful energy and feminine empowerment. The song’s infectious rhythm and engaging visuals have contributed to its success, with the video amassing over a million views. Moyo highlights the chemistry with Master H during the studio session, noting how their collaborative spirit helped bring the track to life quickly.

Following “Kelly Kelvedhura,” Moyo released “Zvakadaro,” which diverges from the dancehall genre to explore guitar-driven sounds reminiscent of Chimurenga and kwassa-kwassa. This diversity in her music demonstrates Moyo’s versatility and her willingness to experiment with different genres. Moyo’s perspective on Zimbabwe’s music scene is one of optimism. She acknowledges the challenges, such as limited resources and the struggle with piracy, but remains hopeful about the country’s growing influence in the global music landscape. She points to producers like Brian Soko and Rymez, who have achieved international success, as evidence of Zimbabwe’s potential.

While *Bold* does not feature the year’s hit singles, Moyo explains that this was a deliberate choice. “I have way too much music in me to recycle songs,” she asserts, emphasizing her desire to continue pushing creative boundaries. As Tamy Moyo navigates her path in the music industry, her commitment to innovation and authenticity stands out. With *Bold*, she reaffirms her status as a dynamic artist, poised to make significant contributions to both local and global music scenes.
