Rising Afro-electronic sensation TAPIWA unleashes his latest masterpiece, ‘HANA’, a breathtaking 3-step anthem that blends emotion, rhythm, and culture into one unforgettable experience.
Released today, the track marks a major milestone in the artist’s journey and sets a powerful tone for the future of African electronic music.
Born and raised in Harare, Zimbabwe, TAPIWA is no ordinary producer.
A multi-instrumentalist, DJ, and genre-bending visionary, his sound is a dynamic fusion of 90s rave nostalgia, Afro House, amapiano, and Afro-pop.
With support from global tastemakers like Martin Garrix, Bob Sinclar, Nitefreak, and Kygo, and radio spins on BBC Radio 1Xtra, KISS FM, Triple J, and 5FM, TAPIWA is steadily carving his name into the global music scene and ‘HANA’ proves exactly why he belongs there.
‘HANA’, created in collaboration with fellow Zimbabwean talents GhostZWE and Tahle We Dzinza, is a sonic cry for peace amidst heartbreak.
Sung in a moving blend of English, Shona, and Ndebele, the track tells the story of a woman pleading for emotional clarity and healing.
Tahle’s vocals rise like a prayer raw, soulful, and gripping, as they float above TAPIWA and GhostZWE’s electrifying production.
Anchored by the unmistakable pulse of the log drum, the rhythm builds steadily into a euphoric crescendo, making ‘HANA’ both a dancefloor anthem and an emotional release.
Beyond the music, today also marks the launch of TAPIWA’s new label, MUSHA meaning ‘home’ in Shona.
More than a label, MUSHA is a community-driven space built to nurture African electronic creators from the ground up.
With ‘HANA’, TAPIWA isn’t just dropping a song he’s building a movement.
