Speaking during an interview with the Sunday Times last year, the 32-year-old rapper revealed that the late musician and a war veteran, Dickson Chinx Chingaira, was his uncle. Jonas recalled Chinx visiting their house in Chitungwiza, as a child, when crowds of neighbours would flood the street to catch a glimpse of the musician. He said: > It’d be like there was a parade or something; that’s how many people came out of their houses to see him. > And that’s how it would be every single time he came to visit; he wore his trademark beret and he would wear African kente, so he was always very noticeable. > He was a star and he was on the telly all the time, especially in the 90s. > I already looked up to him anyway, so it was like ‘Duh! That’s what I wanna do! The story of Jonas’ new single, Twelve 61, is based on one of Chingaira’s most famous songs, Vanhu VemuAfrica. The title of the track is a reference to Jonas’s grandmother’s house address. Jonas is a cousin to rising Zimdancehall star Jah Master, born Rodney Mashandure, who grew up mere streets away from Jonas in Chitungwiza. He said: > So we’re all from near the same area, and Jah Master shot the video for his song Unonzani in our local town centre — so we were already big fans of him because he’s one of us. > And then to find out that this guy who made Hello Mwari — which is a big tune in Zimbabwe — is related to me, it was just crazy. Twelve 61 featuring Jah Master is out now while Jonas’ We Move the Needle will be released in July. *More: The Irish Times* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
