SOUTH AFRICA: Sho Madjozi

If you don’t yet know about Sho Madjozi, I’m going to help you remedy that immediately.

Sho Madjozi is a rapper, singer, artist, poet, dancer– and she is widely considered one of the hottest acts in South Africa right now. She is known for rapping in several languages—her first language, Xitsonga, as well as English and Swahili.

Sho Madjozi absolutely embraces and highlights her Tsonga heritage in her music, with the language, the lyrics, in the dancing with her traditional xibelani skirt; this is what I love about her so much.
