Rapping about love and sorrow? AKA is back in the studio
AKA gets vocal: The troubled rapper has reportedly hit the studio again after the 11 April death of his fiancée.
After taking some time off to mourn the death of his fiancée, Anele “Nelli” Tembe, rapper Kiernan Jarryd Forbes, popularly known by his stage name AKA, is reportedly back in the studio to record some new music.
This according to a tweet by Supa Mega’s “top fan” and promoter, Rubu Thulisa, on Tuesday 2 June.
AKA TAKES TIME OFF TO MOURN
“The tragic loss of Anele has taken a great toll on me emotionally and psychologically. Insinuations and innuendos made on my personhood have made it even more difficult to process, and the strain our families have taken is unspeakable. Which is why at this time I choose to retreat to honour my journey, praying that the moments of stillness may bring me closer to some clarity,” said AKA in a statement released after her death.
Awards season beckons. Yesterday, the 27th edition of the annual SA Music Awards (Samas) kicked off with the announcement of this year’s nomination list.
Naturally, this had opinions flying back and forth, with music fans once again decrying the final selection list. Among the more controversial nominees is Boity Thulo in the hip-hop album of the year category
OMG!!!! OMG!!!! OMG!!!! ?????????????? I GOT A SAMA NOMINATION FOR BEST HIP HOP ALBUM!!!!!! ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? pic.twitter.com/jfFo1IdKKW 4436 OUT NOW (@Boity) May 19, 2021
The rapper will battle it out against Nadia Nakai, Nasty C, Yanga Chief and Zakwe. Boity’s 4436 (her first musical project) was, of course, an EP – not an album – but the awards committee seems to be unbothered about distinguishing between the two. Last year, Yanga Chief received the award for his EP, Becoming a Pop Star.
