Zimbabwean musician Baba Harare has caused a stir on social media after announcing his decision to change his iconic stage name. The artist, who recently switched from Jiti music to gospel, has also decided to rebrand with a new stage name.
Baba Harare shared a poster on Facebook announcing that he will drop his new EP, “My Testimony,” and reveal his new stage name on October 5. However, his decision to change his stage name has sparked mixed reactions among his fans.
Some fans expressed disappointment, arguing that his stage name is a vital part of his brand and doesn’t need to be altered. They feel that the brand “Baba Harare” is too big and blessed to be forgotten, and that it should be sustained to support his new gospel brand.
On the other hand, some netizens are pleased and impressed by Baba Harare’s transformation. They even suggested new stage names for him, showing their support for his new path.
