South African musician Kekelingo of The Muffinz fame has released his debut single ‘Khonza'.
The song features Ami Faku and is available on various streaming platforms.
“I knew her voice will represent the gentleness and loving nature of these incredible queens whom I hold dearly in my heart and spirit," Kekelingo told Music In Africa.
Kekelingo says the song is about his memories in his grandmother's Soweto house.
“I've always imagined how I sounded like as a baby, the day I was born. I wrote 'Khonza' as a thank you to my late mother, grandmother and my sister – powerful and strong African queens who raised and shaped the man that I am today.”
Ami Faku said working with Kekelingo had been a great experience. “He is very talented and I'm thankful to have worked with him. The song speaks about how God is someone I have turned to throughout my entire life,” she said.
