ARTIST PROFILE

a) BACKGROUND

Advokate I birth name Gabriel Muchanyu is an International Musician and a Businessman from Africa. He was born in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe on the 22nd of May 1995. His family then relocated to Torwood, Kwekwe a small mining town in the Midlands province. He's a last born in a family of five who did his primary and secondary school at George Hill and Batanai (ZISCO) High respectively. Gabriel Muchanyu passed with flying colours but couldn't manage to further his studies due to financial issues.

b) HOW HE STARTED MUSIC

He never thought of becoming a musician one day, it all started in 2011. He has always loved reggae/ dancehall since he was exposed to more of it growing up. The love for doing music developed after watching a group of fellow students performing on a school prize giving day. He later on found himself searching for rythm tracks/ instrumental beats which were scarce by the time. He wrote his first song using self knowledge and boom the journey started. He recorded his first demo in 2011/12 using a phone while playing the instrumental beat on the other phone.

c) EARLY MUSIC DAYS AND EXPERIENCES

His first proper studio experience was at Manix Bros Studios in 2014. Since then he's been involved in musical activities which saw him sharing the stage with the legendary Zigzag Band of Chigiyo music from Kwekwe, Zimbabwe. His professional music career started in 2020, that was after he met Don Franco Tafari (online) who helped him on establishing himself as a professional. That same year he met Rebel Shumba who helped him with branding and more.

d) PROJECTS
