5 Of The Best Females In Kwaito Music Of All Times
Most people live in the idea that females who sing or follow up on Kwaito music are ghetto and have loose behavior, that is the idea perpetuated by the society that deems itself liberated. Most times females are being judged when they break into the industry that is ‘meant’to be for males only. Times haven’t changed much, it’s just that now we have females that are proving to the world that they can do more than cooking and bearing children, these females are proving that there is no superiority or in inferiority in gender. Kwaito is another one of the genres that are originally from South Africa. It has females who do and have done justice to it.
Below are 5 of the best females in the Kwaito of all times.
