Nilipomuuliza ni tuzo ngapi ambazo amezipata tokea ameanza muziki? msanii huyu alisema kuwa yeye huwa haesabu na wala hana takwimu yoyote, kwa vile ni nyingi na huwa hajali kwa vile yeye anachojali ni kuchaguliwa kwani hiyo ndiyo heshima kwake.
'Wasanii wengi huwa wanajali sana tuzo bila kujali suala la kuchaguliwa, ni heshima tosha maana inaonyesha ni jinsi gani watu waliweza kukuthamini,' alisema Oliver Mtukudzi.
Oliver "Tuku" Mtukudzi (amezaliwa mnamo 22 Septemba, 1952 mjini Highfield, Harare) ni mwanamuziki wa Kizimbabwe. Oliver ni miongoni mwa wanamuziki walio maarufu kwa muda mrefu sana katika nchi hiyo ya Zimbabwe. Na alianza shughuli za muziki kunako miaka ya 1977 pale alipojiunga na bendi ya Wagon Wheels, ambayo pia alikuwemo na mwanamuziki wa zamani Bw. Thomas Mapfumo.
Nyimbo ya kwanza ilikuwa "Dzandimomotera" iliyoheshimika sana, na hapo ndipo Tuku alipotoa albamu yake ya kwanza, nayo pia ilileta mafanikio makubwa kabisa. Mtukudzi nae pia ni mmoja wa wanakundi la Mahube, kundi la muziki la nchi za Afrika ya Kusini.
