Cleo Arie Celebrates Breakthrough Moment With Zimbabwe’s Revered Gospel Duo At HICC. Cleo Arie is savouring a milestone weekend that lifted her from promising newcomer to a voice embraced on one of Zimbabwe’s biggest gospel stages. The singer testified to a whirlwind of favour after sharing the platform with the esteemed couple Minister Ellard and Sharon Manyonganise Cherayi, a pairing she hails as the nation’s best gospel duo.
“I have been lifted, I’ve been elevated, I’ve been remembered, and I am grateful to God for this season. Never did I ever imagine sharing the stage with this Legendary couple @minister_ellard and @sharon_manyonganise_cherayi, but last weeken,d The Lord Himself made it happen. That’s me, ‘muskana wemaGlazz’, standing next to the best gospel duo in Zimbabwe. Isn’t God good?
“My greatest desire is to see Contemporary Christian music getting recognition and being received by the body of Christ, and it’s finally happening. I am grateful to the Cherayi’s for giving ‘the new school’ Christian music a chance to shine on such a big platform, and I don’t take that for granted. I also got to meet and chat with @thaslickpasto, who ushered me to the HICC stage to minister to the People of God. I kept on pinching myself. I can’t take credit for any of these good things happening in my life right now, but I give all the glory to God who has granted me the grace to serve Him.”
Her post captures a wider shift unfolding in Zimbabwean worship culture, where contemporary Christian sounds are finding room alongside long-loved traditional styles. By spotlighting Arie at the Harare International Conference Centre, the Cherayis opened a door that many young artists have prayed would swing wider. For Arie, the moment doubles as a charge to keep serving with humility, anchoring her excitement in gratitude rather than hype.
