HOLA KAU by BOPHA BLACKMAN AFM
The EP is 100% ekasi-made: composed, arranged, recorded and produced in Soweto, giving it authenticity and township soul.
It’s an audio document of Bopha’s dual role as rapper and drummer,
It’s positioned not just as music, but as a movement — a soundtrack to community, resistance and cultural identity. As his directory page states: “I am not just a rapper; I am a movement… a drum-beating storyteller from the heart of Zola, Soweto.”
For fans and new listeners alike: key tracks like Sunrise to Sunset and Baningi are great entry points. Also, keep eyes on the visual (music video) and lyric video content tied to the project.
The EP also signals that something bigger is coming: a full project / vinyl release in the pipeline.
