Tongai Moyo (12 March 1968 – 15 October 2011) was a contemporary Zimbabwean musician, often referred to as Dhewa. Born and raised in Kwekwe, Zimbabwe, Dhewa rose to fame in the late 1990s as a solo artist and with the band Utakataka Express.[1] Highly successful singles including "Samanyemba", "Naye", and "Muchina Muhombe" led to his national, regional and international fame; he produced 14 albums in a career of over twenty years.[2]

His 14th and final album, Toita Basa, was released on 25 November 2010 by record label Gramma Records.[3] The album was released while he was being treated for cancer, which had been diagnosed in 2008. The song "Ndinobvuma" was especially dedicated to his fight against the disease.[4]
