Holy Ten – Risky Life ALBUM REVIEW Zimbabwe

by MJ WemotoApril 18, 20211 min read

Zim Hip Hop star, Holy Ten, released his much anticipated album Risky Life on April 16, 2021 and there was no way I was NOT going to do a review. So here goes...

I first learnt about Holy Ten when he dropped the video for Ndaremerwa where he made his name stick with a whole generation of music lovers. What made that song in particular resonate is Holy Ten’s storytelling prowess in capturing the bleak reality of Zimbabwe’s youth, granted the video was an amazing edit with some phenomenal compositing among other edits. This was not even a year ago and since then he has become the most talked about name in Zim Hip Hop through a stellar work ethic and a stepping on necks strategy with multiple releases every month. He basically put the foot on the pedal and never hit the brakes. Now, months later, Holy Ten has dropped his much anticipated album Risky Life… and here’s my review for the project.
