Congratulations are in order for Dr. Vimbai Chamisa, who has been awarded a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) from the University of South Africa (UNISA) for her innovative research on the impact of Sungura music by Alick Macheso.

Dr. Chamisa’s PhD thesis delved into the world of Sungura music, conducting an in-depth analysis of musical text and interviewing the legendary Alick Macheso himself, as well as his devoted fans. Her research sheds light on the significant cultural and social implications of Sungura music, making a valuable contribution to the field of music studies.

This achievement is a testament to Dr. Chamisa’s dedication and hard work, and we celebrate her success! Big up to Baba Sharo (Alick Macheso) for his contributions to the music industry, which have inspired a new generation of researchers and music lovers alike.
