Aubrey Qwana has unveiled a new album titled ‘Mkabayi’.

‘Mkabayi’ is a 15-track project that comprises contributions from Sjava, Makhadzi, Anzo and Xowla amongst others.

“On his debut album, Aubrey Qwana uniquely blends genres, cultures and styles while crystalising his distinct bridging of traditional and contemporary sounds”, reads his Apple Music bio.

This body of work consists of the genres Afro-soul, Hip-Hop and a style of South African music known as Mbaqanga.

With ‘Mkabayi’, Aubrey Qwana pays homage to his late mother and “addresses the personal and communal with idiomatic flair.”
