One of the famous African ancestors that is well-known for being ill-treated by colonials was Sara Baartman. So, Nandi Madida decided to show some love to Sara Baartman through music.

She went on to speak about how the body of Sara is being appropriated in the mainstream media. “We see her body being appropriated in mainstream media, but she was never celebrated but rather tortured and abused for her African curves that you see many emulating today. Our ancestor went through so much,” says the singer.
