When Your Idols Become Your Rivals

A New Chapter in Zim Music

The beef between Holy Ten and Winky D has been ongoing for the past few weeks. It all started when Holy Ten collaborated with Winky D on the song “iBotso” off Winky D’s album “Eureka Eureka.” The song sparked a lot of controversy due to its political nature, with many interpreting the song as being critical of the government.

Since then, the two have not worked together and there have been rumours plus speculation that Winky D wants to remove the song from his album. In response, Holy Ten issued a statement saying that he did not intend for the song to be political and that he regretted his involvement in the collaboration.

The drama between the two has been fuelled by a variety of things, including the political nature of the song, the statement issued by Holy Ten, and the fact that both artists have a large and loyal following. Additionally, there have been various public comments made by both sides that have stirred up the beef further.

The situation between Holy Ten and Winky D has been a major talking point in the Zimbabwean music industry, with many fans taking sides and some even calling for the two to sort out their differences. However, it seems that the two are not willing to make peace (well, as far as Holy 10 is fuming) and the beef is likely to continue for the foreseeable future. We are yet to hear from Winky D’s camp, whicj is most unlikely to happen.

Here are the Lyrics to the Ibotso song;

WINKY D ft Holy Ten
Jah know!
De mentor
Ayewa
Hoyo!
Vanotora zvevapfupi nekureba,
Sekutamba sekuseka.
Ibotso
Holy Ten
Vanonyepa, vanonyepedzera,
Vanozeza, vanozeza zera,
Vano Spender, vanotenga tenga.
Ibotso
Ini ndiri muimbi chete,
Handina pfumo handina bakatwa.
Musandikande pasi kunge hakata.
Ibotso
Ayiwa ndiri muimbi chete,
No pfumo no bakatwa.
Sakani musandikakata.
Ndoda pekugara, ndino roof.
Ndinoda chekudya, mumba mune hupfu.
PaGhetto tirikuchema kunge rufu.
Vamwe varikukwata varikuchemera muvhu.
Vauya netsvimbo, hanzi ndiyani anoti bufu?
Vatengesi votengesa vopihwa mafufu.
Torwisana tega maHutu nemaTutsi.
Ayewa hauzombozvida futi (futi).
Zvimoko zvogaya kuti life iri muBeauty.
Vobhaizwa nemadhara ane maCooler box muBhuti.
Yobva yangorohwa raw, Sushi.
Pobarwawo kamwe kayuti (yuti)
Koshaya kuti life iri kunanga nekupi?
Kowona magevha kotambidzwa pfuti.
Kopinda paGhetto koBlinger neGucci.
Holy vatipire kuti;
Vanotora zvevapfupi nekureba,
Sekutamba sekuseka.
Ibotso
Holy Ten
Vanonyepa, vanonyepedzera,
Vanozeza, vanozeza zera,
Vano Spender, vanotenga tenga.
Ibotso
Ini ndiri muimbi chete,
Handina pfumo handina bakatwa.
Musandikande pasi kunge hakata.
Ibotso
Ayiwa ndiri muimbi chete,
No pfumo no bakatwa.
Sakani musandikakata.
Ten Ah, Ghetto Yut zvotimakisa, zvekuvati Boss chakadaro.
Coz Porsche yavanayo magetsi,
Parikubuda maZhets, nemazihunhu.
Mwanasikana buda mumaBedroom
Mwanasikana rinotambika botso iriri,
Tone down, usafirita photo iri.
Unoyerekana wazotsvagwa apa nemagevha anotemera musaga ah.
Nhema, nhema hazvikonzere muskanzwa
Vamwe vedu takakurira munhamo too.
Asi takazviudza kuti we gotta go prove kuti handingambo movhwe, even if you show me zvinhu zvacho zvemuMovie,
I’ll never gonna go groupie never! (Never)
Pane zvakadhura but hapana vaisenza
Pane vakanyura asi hapana vairedza
Vanotora zvevapfupi nekureba,
Sekutamba sekuseka.
Ibotso
Holy Ten
Vanonyepa, vanonyepedzera,
Vanozeza, vanozeza zera,

Ibotso
Ini ndiri muimbi chete,
Handina pfumo handina bakatwa.
Musandikande pasi kunge hakata.
Ibotso
Ayiwa ndiri muimbi chete,
No pfumo no bakatwa.
Sakani musandikakata.
Ibotso!
