Speaking to H-Metro, Sandra said she expresses herself about all the experience­s she has encountere­d over the years.

“I see this album as my most definitive one because I got to fully express myself and the experience­s I have had.

“I also got a chance to explore the different facets of the industry and was completely hands on in the production of each track.

“I had fun doing it because it opened up new partnershi­ps and relationsh­ips.

“I got to experiment with things and to also implement some of the knowledge I have attained, as I am studying for my degree.”

She added:

“You will realise that the sound and the subject matter are things that I really have to talk about and hence it is a very personal album.

“The album has 10 tracks. I have collaborat­ions with Platform One, Exmile and Oskid.

“It is a mixed bag of everything. I did not confine myself to any specific genre.”

Asked about the plans she has for the launch, she said:

“We are going to make this the biggest event of this year.

“The show will be a performanc­e of the entire album plus all works I have released this year.

“I will have 20 plus dancers on stage and cannot wait for all of you to experience that.”

She said she was excited by the support she was getting ahead of the launch.

“I am very grateful for the overwhelmi­ng support I have received from my fellow creatives, the corporate world and even from the Government, especially through the National Arts Council of Zimbabwe.

“I am also grateful to my fantastic team, which has been working tirelessly to put this together,” she told H-Metro.
