About Jah Prayzah

Mukudzeyi Sean Mukombe (born 4 July 1987), known professionally as Jah Prayzah, is a Zimbabwean contemporary musician and the lead member of the band Third Generation. He is renowned for blending traditional Zimbabwean music with Afrobeats, reggae, and contemporary sounds. Fans affectionately refer to him as "Masoja" (Shona for "soldier") due to his military-style stage outfits. His name "Jah Prayzah" derives from his given name, "Mukudzeyi," which means "Praise Him" in Shona. Jah Prayzah began recording in the early 2000s. His debut album Sungano Yerudo was released in 2007, followed by Rudo Nerunyararo and Ngwarira Kuparara, which included the hit “Dande” featuring Chiwoniso Maraire. His major breakthrough came in 2013 with the album Tsviriyo, which won the NAMA Song of the Year award for "Gochi Gochi". His musical style blends Afrobeats, reggae, and traditional mbira-based melodies. His collaborations include Tanzanian superstar Diamond Platnumz on “Watora Mari”, which achieved significant regional success. In 2023, he launched two albums simultaneously: Chiremerera and Maita Baba, with record-setting concerts in Harare and Bulawayo. His most recent album, Ndini Mukudzeyi, was released on 3 May 2025 and launched at Old Hararians Sports Club.
