oh nice, will have a look! (I’m not actively studying, but I’m much more alert to song titles and stuff, so I do google-translate a lot)

cross-posting with the Moloko thread:“Sing It Back”, repurposed by Samthing Soweto as a gospel workout, lyrics slighly tweaked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxuqpXRNuUMSoweto Central Chorus of the Salvation Army ft. Samthing Soweto • Bring It BackMuch better to watch the performance itself, starting from 55:12:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJxmbsgD-FcDon’t know if this version predates the much more faithful (!) Sha Sha cover or not (it looks like it was recorded last year as well) - Samthing and Sha Sha are only one step removed from each other obviously.(Samthing is on two more (consecutive) songs earlier in the concert, “Bawo” and “Mzalwane”, from 11:28 onwards)

I don't much care about Moloko, but that was extremely dope

More from Azana - Your Love which will serve as the first single of her INGOMA album. I think we had a snippet already.

that's just lovely! my first encounter with her, iirc, but stoked for the album now

ah I see she's the singer on that slightly controversial Sun El track

Belatedly, "Your Love" is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard.
― Tim F, Monday, 22 June 2020 02:11 (three years ago) link
All three of these Azana singles are great.

she's amazing

god they sound great together, this album is promising to be stunning

Now do yourselves a favour and listen to “Uhuru” again.
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Friday, 3 July 2020 19:42 (three years ago) link
I will def revisit that when the Sun-El album drops (iirc I wasn't as anti as others). Speaking of, are we looking at albums *this summer* from: Sun-El, Azana, Burna Boy, and WizKid?! Should Simmy be on that list too?
― rob, Friday, 3 July 2020 19:47 (three years ago) link
oh man throw Tresor on that list too, wth
― rob, Friday, 3 July 2020 19:49 (three years ago) link
Not sure about Simmy, but we’ve already had Kabza (I know). Davido also promised another album in July.
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Friday, 3 July 2020 20:30 (three years ago) link
...but yes, that new Azana track. “Umaqondana” might be my favourite so far.
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Friday, 3 July 2020 23:37 (three years ago) link
came across this playlist on Spotify, looks like a perfect match with the music on this thread: Sunday Kind of Love by Filtr South Africa.

New Heavy K, “second single”** from a new project that is promised for 31 July. It sounds great and I'm keeping my fingers crossed:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eG9aNx4y9zEHeavy-K ft. Natalia Mabaso • Uyeke
(**meanwhile previous single “Tsamaya” with Professor has disappeared from Spotify. Don’t know what’s going on between Heavy and Spotify: the tracks he dropped last year never reached it or have disappeared again, and his 2018 album and 2017 classic "Inde" are no longer there either)
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Sunday, 5 July 2020 21:11 (three years ago) link
that's really nice (not surprisingly for him). even the part that semi-reminded me of phil collins "another day in paradise", lol

very nice. no idea who votes in these things, but their respective international profiles being the way they are I would not have expected her to beat Rema.

you're not gonna believe this but the Azana is beautiful music
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Friday, 17 July 2020 17:17 (three years ago) link
yep, it's good. A bit moodier than I was expecting in some way, and it's a lot to take in, but "Egoli" and especially "Bafazi" stood out on first pass
― rob, Friday, 17 July 2020 17:26 (three years ago) link
reminded me of 90s downtempo in spots, strangely enough
