perfect for the track inspired by his deep love of the African House and Gqom genres. He said the song was as a result of having spent some time in Durban, the birthplace of Gqom. Doing what he does best, Baron then took the traditional Gqom and created his own interpretation of the local sound that is already making waves around the world. “The creative process of this song has been an adventure to say the least,” said Baron. “Something that makes me believe that music can transcend language, culture, politics... “Wait... music can even transcend musical genre. Music connects our souls, and when the songs play, we become one.” Commending producers like Baron for creating sounds that help push musicians sonically and building on what has become a proudly South African sound, Zinah said: “It’s so amazing to be part of something different and being able to explore as an artist. “The freedom of using my own language in song, which I’ve never done before, is incredible.” Sharing his fellow artist’s sentiments, Tsenoli also highlighted what a great learning adventure the 18-month long collaboration had been. “My taste in music has always been across all genres. So, even though this sound is an unexplored avenue for me, I was stoked to be able to work with an artist of Daniel’s calibre.” Already wellknown for his singles Goddess and Speed of Light, and being instrumental in the production and song-writing elements on a variety of singles by up-and-coming local musicians, Thula is undoubtedly Baron’s most adventurous single to date. The highly addictive and foot-tappingly enjoyable track is currently available for fans to download on their favourite digital music platforms.
