Thomas Mapfumo's Danger Zone Album Now Freely Available To The Public

Thomas Mapfumo, the Chimurenga Music King has finally decided to let the public have his Danger Zone album for free. He is encouraging fans to descend onto the streets and do some self-help on any Danger Zone Music that is out there for it has been stolen from him by the music pirates on the streets. This tough decision emerged in the wake of recent frustration through the hands of music pirates who have gone ahead to duplicate and wantonly sell the music for private gain, leaving Thomas Mapfumo and his band members and families out there in the cold.

Thomas said, "We already pulled off the streets the real music from all the formal outlets in Zimbabwe. That means any Danger Zone music cds that are still out there on the streets are pirated music that is in violation of copyright laws. The public is hereby encouraged to freely grab any Danger Zone music for free from the streets because it is stolen property. The public can freely do so without consequence  because the music pirates have also become a law unto themselves."

Such a stance was prompted by the passive participation of law enforcement authorities in Zimbabwe. It is believed that such a move will even out the frustration that Thomas has over his stolen music that has been the subject of nationwide rackets believed to involve even some top cabinet ministers in government.

"Please go out there on the streets and help yourself to my Danger Zone music. It is now for free. Those who are selling have stolen from me and they have no right to claim ownership for they do not have the private property rights."He concluded.
