Winky D has once again left his legion of fans debating, interpreting and dissecting his music after surprising them with the release of his latest 16-track album, Tête à Tête (Hello Africa).
The Zimdancehall heavyweight unveiled the project at his sold-out Tête à Tête Season 2 show at Alex Sports Club on Saturday, sending his fans, popularly known as maGafa, into a frenzy on social media.
Some fans have jokingly suggested that the album requires "someone with five O-Levels" to fully understand and appreciate it.
Others have described the project as deeper than Gombwe and more enlightening than Eureka Eureka, with many dissecting the track titles and themes in search of deeper meanings.
For some fans, the album appears to be more than a casual listen, with its themes and symbolism demanding close attention, interpretation and, perhaps, a little homework.
The reaction reflects the long-standing relationship between Winky D and his fan base, who have embraced his music for its social commentary, symbolism and philosophical themes.
Following the concert, Winky D thanked his fans for their continued support and for defending the purpose behind his music.
"To all the Gafas who came through for Tete-a-Tete Season 2, I offer my deepest gratitude," he wrote.
He said the concert may have lasted only one night, but the support behind it had been built over more than two decades.
"The concert could have lasted for just one night, but the faith that brought you to attend this event was built over more than two decades, in which you have stood by my works as both listeners and believers in a musical mission shaped by truth, consciousness and purpose," he said.
Winky D said the longevity of his music was largely due to fans who had embraced his work and connected it with their own experiences.
"The distance and time my music has travelled, has been possible simply because you have carried it in your hearts, defended its purpose and related your own stories within it," he said.
He thanked fans for embracing the evolution of his sound and continuing to believe in the mission behind his music before officially announcing the new project.
"The journey continues, enjoy the new project roll out. Tête à Tête (Hello Africa)," he said.
With 16 tracks now available, maGafa have wasted little time getting to work — decoding the titles, debating the themes and, if the jokes are anything to go by, brushing up on their "five O-Levels".
