Chimurenga music legend Thomas Mapfumo's new album titled Danger Zone will finally be launched at the Book Café on February 17.

Metro Studios director Emion Sibindi, whose company is jointly distributing the album with Mapfumo' Chimurenga Music Company, confirmed the launch date of the United States of America-based artiste's long-awaited new offering.

Songs to look forward to on the album include Hatidi Politics which attacks the local political leadership for making false promises and for failing to provide basic services to the people.
Nhamo Urombo offers a poignant recapitulation of his central theme on Danger Zone while Chikwereti broadens the scope with a pointed message to African nations who accept financial help from foreign countries, notably China: It's not a gift. One way or another, you will have to pay them back.

The title track Danger Zone is a survey of the world's hot spots -Syria, Iraq, Libya. But it comes from a philosophical perspective, asking how it is that God's children seem incapable of living in peace."

Other songs on the new offering are Varimudande and Pasi idandaro, two English language songs, Celebrate and Are You Ready as well as Music and a remix of Shabeen that features guest vocals by Natalia Rollins.
