Local pop star Majozi has been very prominent on the local airwaves over the past two years. He’s collaborated with the likes of Janie Bay, Neon Dreams, Straatligkinders and Easy Freak but now, he’s finally entering a brand-new musical chapter as he announces his upcoming studio album. To celebrate, he’s released ‘Safe In The Sound’, the lead single off the new project – just ahead of his upcoming SXSW performance.
The star started working on the new single midway through 2022, a single he describes as one of those songs which feels as if he didn’t write it, but rather was lucky enough to discover it and write what was already there but not realised to the world yet.
“I have my own idea what the song is about, but to be honest I’d love people to write their own stories and meanings to the song. This song isn’t just my song. It’s yours too.” Majozi tells us.
‘Safe In The Sound’ is a heartfelt and hopeful offering similar to the signature Majozi music fans have come to love in the past, but with an element which will make the listener want to rise and hover in the air with lightness. In his heart, Majozi felt that this was the perfect choice as first single from his new album.
On the upcoming project, Majozi narrates the last few years of his life as journeying through the peaks and valleys of existence on earth – from starting a wonderful new relationship, getting married and navigating the joys of sharing a life with someone, to also dealing with the emotions of being creative, self doubt and regular imposter syndrome. Now he is finally ready to release some brand new music to fans who have been waiting patiently.
The star’s new album drops later this year but ‘Safe In The Sound’ is available to stream right now.
