Prince Peter Moyo, popularly known as M.G Hkh, is not just a name rising through Zimbabwe’s hip-hop charts he’s also a hardworking auto electrician. In an industry where many young artists expect overnight success, M.G Hkh’s story is refreshingly grounded. By day, he fixes engines and electrical systems; by night, he pens lyrics and records music that resonates with a generation facing similar realities.
Born and raised in Masvingo, Zimbabwe, M.G Hkh began his musical journey in 2019, performing freestyle rap at school. His deep, introspective lyrics and soulful delivery drew comparisons to American rapper Rod Wave. But unlike many artists trying to chase fame full-time, he kept his day job to support his dreams.
“I love music, but I also believe in having something stable,” he says. “Being an auto electrician helps me survive, stay focused, and fund my music.”
This blend of hustle and creativity is evident in his work. Songs like “No Pressure”, “60k”, and “Rufu Runopedza” reflect real-life struggles from emotional pain to financial stress themes many Zimbabweans relate to.
Fans admire his authenticity. “He doesn’t fake the lifestyle,” says one listener. “He’s real, and that’s why his music hits hard.”
In a time where flashy visuals and rented cars dominate music videos, M.G Hkh stands out by keeping it honest. He’s featured on local platforms like 263Chat, iHarare, and ZimSphere, and his open verse on bDarknight has even gained international attention.
As he continues to rise, he remains proud of both his talents as a rapper and a mechanic.
