On what inspired him to choose his music genre, Tapfuma says: "My parents separated when I was very young. This meant that I grew up in two places as I lived with Dad but visited Mum on holidays.
"Mum's family had a very strong rasta/dancehall influences and my dad's had very strong hip hop influences so both grew on me.
"As a result, my music is a pure equilibrium of both."
