End of gqom

Overview

Recent developments in the gqom genre highlight a resurgence of South African electronic music, with artists like FKA Mash releasing tracks such as EXITECHNO and emerging acts drawing inspiration from 1980s pop and kwaito's legacy. Live experiences, including Liquideep's first curated show in Johannesburg, underscore a growing momentum in the scene, while new releases from Kwesta, Little Simz, and Ntate Stunna reflect broader trends in Afro-house and southern African music.
