New track has it all rapped up

By now, South African songstress Nomfundo Moh has cemented herself as a household name — known for her ethereal voice, soul-stirring lyrics and the kind of sound that feels like a warm embrace on a cold morning.

But on her latest single Ndizamshini, featuring the ever-electric Blaq Diamond, she takes a bold detour. And it’s not just a flirtation with a new sound — it’s a full-blown creative reintroduction.

Ndizamshini is a fusion of Afro-pop and hip-hop,” she says with a calm certainty — the kind that comes from deep intention.

“My beats are usually a fusion of Afro-pop and any other genre and the aim is to bring people that love music together using one song,” she continues.

It’s this unifying ethos that threads through all of Moh’s work, and this time, it’s armed with a little more bass and bravado.
