Moonchild Sanelly Shows Us Inside The World of Amapiano, South Africa’s Sound of Freedom

Follow musician @Moonchild Sanelly deep into the changing sounds and streets of South Africa to explore #amapiano – the emerging underground music scene soundtracking a new kind of freedom in the country, rooted in its long history of resistance. As featured in the autumn 2021 issue of Dazed.
