Disabled artist still to come to terms with Terry Gee’s death
DISABLED artist, Simba Ngirandi, says he is still to come to terms with the death of Terry Gee.
He feels Terry Gee and Chipo Muchegwa are game-changers in showbiz.
Terry Gee succumbed to cardiac arrest at Arundel Hospital on December 24 last year.
Simba, who had an opportunity to share the stage with Chipo last month during a local pageant, says disabled artists should follow their dreams.
“I ventured into music as a way of motivating other disabled people to use their Godgiven talents to earn a living.
“My vision has always been to preach the word of God through music as well as encouraging young people to abstain from drugs,” he said.
Simba is suffering from conus medullaris syndrome.
“Confidence is key in the entertainment business,” the 20-yearold said.
“Without confidence, you can’t make it.
“To date, I have just recorded three singles and I do hope to record more.
“I did a Covid-19 pandemic song, which was based on supporting the Government to spread the message on how to reduce the spread of the virus.
“I did two more songs namely Vanhu Ava and X-Kunge Fire.”
Simba feels loved by his community. “I would like to thank Evangelist Joseph Kufandiko, Mrs. Mafana, who is my grandmother, Boss Reza, the Ngwenduna family, the Kamba family, Boss Bhonzo and Boss Kangara who believe in my talent.
“I am confident I can make it to the top, with the support of everyone, to ensure that I look after my two siblings and grandmother.” The late Terry Gee was on fire when he died after winning the hearts of many with his collaboration ‘Ndezvemoyo,’ featuring Chipo.
At Jairos Jiri Kadoma, several disabled musicians are itching to record their music.
