“I’m proud to be an African child born into the NGWENYA family!! I’ve faced numerous challenges in my life, and I believe my grandfather would have been immensely proud of me today. On the 10th, we’re releasing the first single from my EP, ‘NGWENYA,’ featuring the incredible @nkosazana_daughter, who has taught me so much about myself in such a short time!”
Lady Du further reveals that her EP will be released on her birthday, the 17th of May. Collaborating with vocal powerhouses, she explains the significance of the title “UNDERRATED,” symbolizing the struggle faced by artists who aspire for greatness but are hindered by various obstacles.
“This is dedicated to all independent artists, the ones who tirelessly work and contribute to the industry but often feel overlooked. To those who feel trapped, I urge you to listen to your heart, remember your roots, and let your family name propel you forward. Your legacy matters. Thank you all for being my salvation,” Lady Du concludes.
