Twenty-year-old Gweru artiste Makanakana SV Sibanda has defied the odds and released a motivational speaking album, a feat managed by a few in the country.
The album has five tracks of motivational speeches. It is titled Keep On Keeping On.
“The tracks all speak up of the need for people to persevere in all their endeavours if ever they are to achieve great success,” said Sibanda.
“Water is not something that is deemed strong, but if it keeps flowing through a rock, it ends up breaking it.”
The youthful artiste rose to stardom last year when he released a motivational book at the age of 19, thereby becoming the country’s youngest author.
The book is titled Making The Impossible Possible, with the subtitle The Sky is Not the Limit, There are Footprints on the Moon. It speaks of what the author describes as secrets to success.
“The current motivational album has tracks that encourage people to be stoical. The title track is self-explanatory. It counsels against giving up,” he said.

“The second track — Hunger for Success — encourages people to cast deaf ears and blind eyes to negative criticism in everything they set their energies on in life.
“The third track — Who Will Pray for the Devil — just tells people that they must not bother answering questions from haters. Yet the fourth track, Time to Fly, aptly says the era for starting things that reap success is now.”
He described the fifth track, Can’t Quit, Won’t Quit, as cementing the underlying tip to achievement.
