It is really amazing how local artists have been able to reshape traditional beats and styles into something that can flourish in the mainstream. The success of the Maskandi sound is one that needs to be studied and this all thanks to the tactfulness of artists like Navigator Gcwensa. Pushing out more Maskandi bangers, the emerging artists has delivered to us “Kuyenzeka,” a 5-track body of work that makes you develop instant love for the Maskandi sound.
We first heard of Navigator Gcwensa after his IPHUTHA single went viral in 2021. Ever since then, he has been able to influence Maskandi culture and play at special events all over Zululand. While he’s yet to attain the top spot in the scene, he is still a reckoning force inside the Maskandi scene.
Today, he delivers his 9th studio project via “Kuyenzeka” and releases like this will help put his style on full display and further solidify him as a mover and shaker in the growing Maskandi scene.
Featuring 5 hefty tracks, this project is in stark contrast from the typical Maskandi range we have come to know knowNavigator Gcwensa for, and that’s intentional. He deviate a little bit while upholding every essence of the traditional sound, leading to a body of work you can’t help but put on steady repeat.
After this new album, it will be no problem for Navigator Gcwensa to hold his spot at the top with other Maskandi legends… Because This project is perfectly crafted!
