Welcome to Jinx music page
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Jinx/Muna hails from Malawi and was a founding member of the Lilongwe based Blind Vision crew, one of the first hiphop outfits to emerge from Lilongwe. As one half of Blind Vision, Jinx was well known within the Malawi under ground circuit.
After releasing a string of hot singles. Blind Vision eventually released “As the World Turns” before disbanding, an album that was well received among the critics. Jinx then travelled to Uk where he eventually met Pempho Kafoteka (Rissah) another rapper/mcee from Malawi who was also based in the Uk at the time. The meeting of the two led to the formation of a good bond. Rissah had heard a lot about Jinx whilst still in Malawi and so had Jinx about Rissah and Southern Kaos crew. The two decided to join forces forming Public Image with Double J (JJ) and Yung Cuz (originally from Southern Kaos) releasing "Image Effect." The Jinx/Muna produced album led to the formation of Muna Productions, a production facility run and manged by jinx. Muna Productions is the sister company to Rush Recordings malawi l.t.d and responsible for music production and promoting Malawian music in UK.
In 2005 Rissah moved back to Malawi from the Uk with a sole aim to establish Rush Records offically and cement it as one of Malawi's most musically creative labels. He has since suceeded and Rush Records remains Malawi's musical powerhouse todate with Kenny Klips, Dezert Eagle manning the nurturing of artists.
Meanwhile Jinx in the Uk embarked on a project of establishing the sister company Muna Productions. Through his work, Jinx managed to meet up with a other local artists inevitably forming "Projekt Feenix."
With both Rush records and Muna productions establishing themselves, every year seems gets busier. Muna Productions now currently mans a chunk of musical projects both within the Projekt Feenix and outside.
