The Breakout Hit
Her hit single “Kutsamwa Kune Labour,” a collaboration with fellow artist Saintfloew, has become a cultural phenomenon, garnering millions of views on YouTube and dominating local radio charts. The Shona title loosely translates to "being angry/disappointed is burdensome," a deeply relatable message that has sustained its replay value.
Critics have noted that the track's power lies in its effortless and raw vocal delivery, which makes it sound less like a polished studio track and more like an "imitation of random gossip in the neighbourhood." This authentic quality allows the song to transcend technical demands and connect with listeners on a personal level.

Nisha Ts aims to break into the broader African market and use her platform to reshape perceptions about women. “In each of my songs, I aim to encourage women to take pride in who they are,” she stated.
Her rise has reignited the "Chegutu flame," drawing comparisons to the success of other artists from the town, like Leo Magozz ('FIRE EMOJI'). She is seen as a vital new voice in a music scene that has been perceived as lacking strong female competitors in contemporary genres like hip hop and dancehall.
As of now, she has maintained a positive public image, free from any significant controversies, allowing her powerful music and inspiring message to take center stage.
