LGBTQ artists are out there making new music to disrupt, inspire and give joy to the soul. Here’s a batch of fresh local queer music releases you need to check out. Mr Allofit – Nguban’ Ozosnqanda?
The self-proclaimed Superstar of the Century is back with “a cross-generational street ballad”. Produced by Lindokuhle Malloy (aka B1), Nguban Ozosnqanda is described as a “sonic fusion of a kwaito bass progression and classic South African 80s bubble gum chords laced with hip hop styled snare drums.” It’s a nostalgic homage to the quintessential South African street style with an updated futuristic twist.
The title translates to ‘who is going to stop us?’ “I wanted to speak about the struggles black queer femmes go through,” says Mr Allofit.
