Moonga K has always injected so much of his personality into his music which is why it’s not unexpected that he is taking things up a notch on his new EP ‘Candid’.
The singer gets raw, real and honest on his new collection of music and reminds fans why he has always managed to stand out.
The road to the release of Moonga K.’s new EP began with the catchy and black empowerment-themed single ‘black, free & beautiful’ which he dropped back in July. This was followed by ‘Rebel Time’ featuring Sampa The Great, which presented a harder, refined sound. These two tracks laid the foundation for Moonga’s versatile six-track body of work that explores heartbreak, black pride, social activism, the search for identity and generational trauma.
“‘CANDID’ is about the urgency to be who I am. To speak my truth. To live my truth, unapologetically, even though I’m incredibly terrified. Morbidly terrified of the aftereffects but I feel compelled to and so I had to create this record and let that truth live in song,” Moonga K. tells us.
He adds “The record incorporates elements of soul, funk, contemporary R&B, rap, neo soul, pop punk, and jazz music. There are also two spoken word interludes that reprise the topics explored in ‘REBEL TIME’ and ‘honeybee.’ It was written with, and produced by, Greg Abrahams.”
