UNITED State-based Afro-pop singer, Julian King, has been appointed CEO of Accounting Advantage, a firm specialising in tax planning and accounting services. The versatile artist last performed in Zimbabwe at the Kadoma Music Festival last year. He has also invested heavily in academics, which now serves as a robust fall-back plan.
Speaking to Zimpapers Arts and Entertainment Hub from his base in the United States, the “One by One” hit-maker could not hide his excitement following his appointment. “It’s a blessing and a huge responsibility at the same time to be appointed CEO. “Navigating business in a tough industry and foreign country is no easy task.
“I am looking forward to the opportunities that come with the announcement as well,” he said. When asked how he managed to land the top post, Julian King said: He noted, however, that education is not for everyone, as people’s gifts differ. “No one’s life is the same.

One’s path isn’t a reflection of what everyone should do. “The path of education is not everyone’s but if artists can invest their resources in other areas, that is always a wise and privileged position to be in. “I don’t want to sound like I have it all figured out because jobs and businesses are very volatile.” “Education has opened certain doors of opportunity and shaped my mindset. “There is a business side to music, and I’ve been able to maneuver that better.”
