IF YOU thought Tom Mayombo, best known as Tom Close, was giving up his music career for a medical profession, you are mistaken. The RnB singer is ready to take on two tasks. The 2011 Primus Guma Guma Superstar has released a new single dubbed Abantu Barahindutse. The single is already enjoying airplay on local radio stations. This song comes only a month after the release of Byararangiye which was his latest hit. “In this song, I educate and inform my fans and the public as a whole that people can easily change based on various factors; meaning that it is wise to deal with them carefully as anything can happen,” he said. He explained that although not all people act the same way, it is important to note that there is a possibility of people turning against each other. Tom Close said that the message in this song aims at bringing people to terms with the challenges they face in their day to day activities. The singer said that it takes some time to learn people’s attitudes and that their ‘true colours’ can be hidden for as long as they wish. “I want to make sure that people get to know the real world we live and the challenges involved and I am sure that this will help people peacefully deal with others,” he said. For the time the singer has been in the music industry, he has released over 20 singles that include Kuki, Mbwira and Sinarinkuzi among others.
