"I Am Back for Business": Baba Harare Seals Triumphant Return with "Greater and Wiser" Album Launch

After a year-long detour into gospel music, Jiti star Baba Harare made his much-anticipated comeback to circular music with a classical show at Jongwe Corner on Friday, silencing skeptics and proving that his musical prowess is stronger than ever.

A Triumphant Return

The launch of his five-track project, aptly titled "Greater and Wiser," defined a new era in the musician's career. At the packed Jongwe Corner venue, Baba Harare made a bold declaration to his fans and the industry: "I am back for business, I will let my work do the talking."

The event was a celebration of Zimbabwean music, attracting a sizeable crowd and featuring powerful performances from a star-studded lineup that included Feli Nandi, Obert Chari, and Prince Chingwida. In a show of industry solidarity, Freeman HKD also made a surprise appearance, adding to the night's excitement.

The "Greater and Wiser" Album

The new music was an instant hit. Two songs from the album, "9 Months" and "Couple of the Year," exploded on YouTube, hitting 100,000 views in less than 24 hours—a clear testament to his unparalleled musicianship and the public's excitement for his return to Jiti.

The five-track project, with four songs accompanied by videos, includes the instant hits as well as "Poverty," "Chigaba Chinorira," and "Tiende," showcasing the lyrical depth and infectious rhythms that fans have come to love.

Fan Reactions: From Skepticism to Celebration

Many fans attended the launch with a degree of skepticism. After his year-long stint in gospel music, some feared the "return to Jiti" was a gimmick, and that he might launch another gospel album in disguise. "I was trusting this guy, but I wasn't sure he was going to dump gospel music," admitted one fan, Mhofela.

However, the fears quickly subsided as the new, unmistakably Jiti music filled the venue. The absence of his wife, often associated with his gospel chapter, further confirmed the shift. "Now, I confirmed it firsthand," Mhofela continued. "The album is made up of Jiti songs... we'll have plenty of songs to dance to this Christmas!"
