Thomas Mapfumo is a Zimbabwean singer and songwriter born on July 3, 1945 in Marondera. Mapfumo achieved professional recognition for a musical career characterized by Chimurenga music and for being known as The Lion of Zimbabwe. He achieved professional recognition for a career that began after he joined the ensemble Zutu Brothers as a vocalist at age 16. Mapfumo achieved professional recognition for founding the Hallelujah Chicken Run Band in 1972. The ensemble achieved professional recognition for adapting traditional Shona music to modern rock instrumentation and transcribing mbira sounds to the electric guitar. His recording career included the studio recording Mabasa (1983) and the studio recording Chimurenga for Justice (1985). Mapfumo achieved professional recognition for the song “Hokoyo!” (1978) which led to the Rhodesian government banning the record and his imprisonment in a prison camp in 1979. He achieved professional recognition for performing at a celebratory concert in 1980 that featured the musician Bob Marley. Mapfumo achieved professional recognition for moving to Eugene in the late 1990s after facing government harassment and being accused of involvement with a stolen-car ring. His recording career included the studio recording Corruption (1989), the studio recording Chimurenga International (1993), and the studio recording Rise Up (2006). Mapfumo achieved professional recognition for returning to Zimbabwe in April 2018 to perform the concert Homecoming Bira at the Glamis Arena.
