How do you know if Kwaito is for you?


If you have never opened the door to Kwaito, maybe it’s time you consider opening a window? I’m not asking you to erect a Brenda Fussy shrine in your bedroom but I am asking you to extend your musical vocabulary, broaden your palate, break out of your comfort zone and face the unknown! Ladies and gentlemen just give it a chance…

So how do you know if you are even going to enjoy this ‘Kwaito’? If you would rather swallow a battery than go to a family reunion then Kwaito is probably not for you. If you are a ‘social sitter’ – meaning that you may extend a hello, but never your legs at a party then Kwaito is less likely to be on your iPod. If the thought of choreographed steps makes you sweat then maybe give Kwaito a miss? However, if you live for Friday afternoons, where you consider your weekend starting after your first coffee break, if you are the kind of person who would rather cast a line then meet a deadline and if you feel as though music moves you, not emotionally but physically moves you as though you’re a garden gnome being shuffled around the garden by an elderly women with OCD then Kwaito is for you!
