Soul Jah Love is an award winning and popular Zimdancehall
artist who rose to prominence in 2012 with hit tracks such as "Ndini
Uya uya" and "Gum-kum". He is often compared to the Jamaican Vybz
Kartel.Soul Jah Love shine as he was appointed a brand ambassador for Jan Jam Fashions in April 2014. He is known for making the "Chibabababa", Hauite Hauite" and "Conquering" signature chants which appear in all of his songs.
The dancehall chanter was involved in many controversial issues. He
sometimes failed to turn up for paid gigs and in other instances he had
double bookings. The Mbare-bred chanter at one point faced arrest after failing to honor a contractual agreement with Uptown Club in Gweru.
He reportedly received US$380 payment for performance but failed to
turn up for the Zim Dancehall Varsity gig resulting in his promoter
reporting the case to the police.
He was again caught on the wrong side during Valetine's Day in
2014. He was reportedly paid by Whispers Night Club to do a gig on on
the day but he did not turn up. It was allegedly reported that he chose
to perform in Beitbridge leaving his fans that had turned up for his show stranded.
In November 2014, Soul Jah Love was involved in a stage fight with a fellow dancehall musician Seh Calaz at City Sports Centre in Harare. Whilst performing, Soul Jah Love went on to attack Seh Calaz causing mayhem and about ten people were injured when the Zimbabwe Republic Police tried to disperse people using tear gas.
