Kelly says she is thrilled about her new body of work, and fans can expect to be taken into a journey of self-reflection of who we are as Africans.
“The album tells the stories of Africa, the richness of our culture and just who we are as Africans, hence the album is called The Voice of Africa.”
The songstress has worked with talented people on the album, including the likes of music producer Mondli Ngcobo, and Msaki.
“Msaki was the first person I started working with on the album, it was a breath of fresh air to have a female producer, who is also a musician,” she says.
Kelly says working with Mondli is always nothing short of amazing due to his talent.
The award-winning songstress recently dropped her new single Esiphambanweni featuring celebrated Gospel powerhouse Dr Hlengiwe Mhlaba.Esiphambanweniis an uplifting worship song about grace and sacrifices God makes for his people. Speaking about working with Dr Hlengiwe Mhlaba she says it was weird because they didn’t get to be in studio together, but they produced a great song.
“I didn’t choose Dr. Hlengiwe. God did, never in my wildest dream would I imagine the Goddess of Gospel in a song with me but somehow she is, thank God for Mondli. Esiphambanweni sums up my Journey with God, how He cares, provides, protects, teaches and chooses to bless me through it all. I want people to remember God’s love for them and the significance of the Cross.”
“It was a bit strange because we did not get to be in studio together with Hlengiwe due to covid-19, she recorded in Durban and I recorded in Johannesburg but we delivered,” says Kelly.
