Career
Maselo produced Muridzo's album “Ngarizhambe” that had several hit songs. It had songs like “Dhafudhunda”, “Dherira”, ”Ngarizhambe” and “Handina Zvipande” that became popular in most public places.[2] After Muridzo left for Jah Prayzah's Military Touch Movement, Maselo launched his own stable named Maselo Productions as a move to correct mistakes that led to the Dherira hitmaker’s unceremonious departure.[1] Maselo had already recorded nine songs with Muridzo. Maselo said Muridzo never communicated to him and he was shocked to read about the deal in the newspapers.[3]
Maselo has also produced Jah Signal’s Kupinda Mubako and Baba Harare’s Hat Dzemurara which were hit songs at the time of their release. As a guitar player, Maselo went for a tour in Sweden where he was doing some guitar lectures. He has also produced music for Mathias Mhere and Progress Chipfumo.[4]
