“I’ve no doubt that Majee kno-ws how we feel as fans and certainly would have loved to please us but let’s put into context his personal circumstances which may impede him from doing so. We miss him a lot.” – Zee Masiye Moyo.
“Oh man that will be great and I would love the opportunity to see you perfom live. Your songs are timeless classics on my favourites lists man . . . COME BACK TO THE WORLD baba!!!!” – Bantu KayCee.
“I still recall very well when with my friend the late Tomy Ndlovu used to frequent Nkulumane, Magwegwe and Majaivana’s music playing in those drinking holes. Life will never be the same without Majee.” – George Sibangani.
“Majaivana, if you ever get to read this; I was a young boy when you performed with a group of visiting Scandanavian singers at Harare Gardens. They were good, but the crowds had gat-hered to see you.
Those we-re the dayswhen few Zimbabwean singers performed outside bars and beer gardens. You are a Zimbabwean legend and we ask that you come out of hibernation!!” – Julius Masimba Musodza.
“Majee kuende nekudzoka (sic) the people have spoken this is your time . . . remember our last gigs WOMAD + many more. I think you grafted enough in your day to put Zim music on the map and you are still best in the game time to come back and reap the rewards . . .” – Wala Danga, producer and promoter for Lovemore Majaivana and the Zulu Band 87, 90 UK + European tours.
“I am sick and tired of Cont Mhlanga and his friends who are bizy saying the people of Bula-wayo are responsible for MAJAI-VANA’S retirement. What they don’t realise is that it is a different generation that is trying to be responsible of re-building our music industry, we kindly ask CONT to shut up and stop discouraging people from inviting MAJI back . . . BY POPULAR DEMAND, pliz come back, GOLIDE.” – Mojalifa Mokoele.
“I felt a lot of pain when I saw a statement of Majaivana saying he spent 15 yrs making others rich. Don’t let any1 fail your career & dreams. Now do smthing for the love of industry & fans not money.” – Petros Khumalo.
“The man spoke prophetically, but this is the time to rebuild, Golide where are you. The hour has come that we should rise and make a difference, so that us of yesteryear will be able to pass on the baton stick to the right people not the tenderprenuars.”
