Chimurenga is a Shona language word for liberation, which entered common usage during the Rhodesian Bush War.
The word's modern interpretation has been extended to describe a struggle for human rights, political dignity and social justice.
Mapfumo developed a style of music based on traditional Shona mbira music, but played with modern electric instrumentation, with lyrics characterized by social and political commentary.
