Let's decode Roma's Zimbabwe..

Interest · Aug 11, 2017

Dear comrades..

NB: I'm opening this discussion in English to attract a fresher audience..

Roma, the most controversial hip hop artist this country has ever had, is now on the airwaves trending with his new joint, Zimbabwe.

We all know what happened to him recently, so this new song tries to explain in details about what really went on.

My interest on the song is the way Roma has portrayed his message to us. He managed to make all of us chill and think.

I arguably ask you, dear Great Thinkers, to keep on digging and decoding the message coded in this hot joint.

10 points(lyrics) below should pave a way....

1. Name of the track (Zimbabwe) - Why Zimbabwe???

2. God of Paul, is the God of Daud as well as that of John >> Why Paul, Daud & John?

3. I have witnessed the people's power >> How?

4. Put your gun down and let us argue >> Who's that using a gun instead of arguments?

5. Even though you don't have a star on the shoulder (military rank), I am sure you are a soldier >> Who is this soldier?

6. Or were you given the order(to do what u did) >> Again, who is this?

7. You and I are the opponents(Simba/Yanga), but being an opponent is not a crime >> What is he trying to say by this?

8. A day will come and the ruler will be on the opposition wing, and if that happens will you be safe? >> Roma warns who?!

9. In one of my prior songs, I predicted that you will become the president, though life is harder but kudos to you >> Mmmmhhhh????

10. And those who presumed that Roma will be found by the next Sunday, God bless the revelation became vivid >> I think I know who this is!

10 points below should pave a way....

1. Name of the track (Zimbabwe) - Why Zimbabwe???

Satire for Tanzania heading to having Mugabe kind of a ruler

2. God of Paul, is the God of Daud as well as that of John >> Why Paul, Daud & John?
Paul and Daudi are the same person - you know who. John is the keeper of Paul

3. I have witnessed the people's power >> How?

If it wasn't for people's demand for his release we would have long forgotten him by now. People's voices got him released.

4. Put your gun down and let us argue >> Who's that using a gun instead of arguments?
The current state we are in, you are either with them or against them. The definition of a patriot now is on who you praise and who you condemn. For those that are in the helm of power they don't reply verbally, rather by use of intimidation - Roma's abduction being an example.

5. Even though you don't have a star on the shoulder (military rank), I am sure you are a soldier >> Who is this?

Despite not having enough authority as per his position DAB has a high command on the militia, thanks to his keeper.

6. Or were you given the order(to do what u did) >> Again, who is this?
DAB

7. You and I are the opponents(Simba/Yanga), but being an opponent is not a crime >> What is he trying to say by this?
The political state we are in refer to answer no. 4

8. A day will come and the ruler will be on the opposition wing, and if that happens will you be safe? >> Roma warns who?
Whoever is on the political helm of power now, you know who.

9. In one of my prior songs, I predicted that you will become the president, though life is harder but kudos to you >> Mmmmhhhh????
Not sure which song that was.

10. And those who presumed Roma will be found by the next Sunday, God bless the revelation became vivid >> I think I know who this is!

He didn't say 'presume' rather 'confessed' and that was DAB.

But they say Roma was not found.
People took him and was beaten badly. Or people took him and beat him badly
I think Roma is saying the truth.

Sijui ndohicho alitaka kusema Yarabi. Hizi lugha unaweza uwandike uambulie patupu. Just rectify him, since the thread is written in English so that's why he also answered in English

The code NAENDA ZIMBABWE could mean any of the following;

- Tanzania is underway to be come a dictatorship regime like Zimbabwe. Or the economy might be going for a nose dive like Zimbabwe!

- Zimbabwe is a safe place to be currently, compared to Tanzania. So he's headed there for his own safety!

I'm glad he's back on his lane. K ni K was a big joke!

Refer to the Statement "I am the President and nobody else, Nobody said your not".

10. And those who presumed Roma will be found by the next Sunday, God bless the revelation became vivid
Its like a Hollywood Movies why be so sure to predict the date and Day was it Planned before?

5. I think a man who kidnapped him didn't have a star nor wearing uniform but Roma is sure the guy is a soldier taking order from somewhere...(DAB and co)
