Netsayi - Monkeys Wedding

You are here: I Like Music > urban > Netsayi - Monkeys Wedding

Netsayi's initial creative soundings, both in Zimbabwe and South Africa, took her towards film and television. When she returned to the UK at the turn of the millennium (initially living in Bristol before coming back to London), she started an MA in film studies. "I did a year of a two-year course, then ducked out in favour of music - it was the right thing to do."

She started to play live around the UK in 2001, soon turning heads with her performances in every imaginable location, from the London African Music Festival to a much-coveted 'Peel Session' for Radio 1. By 2004, she'd formed her own independent label, Militant Prince, and released the single 'Tatters.' The underground success of that song provided the momentum for 'Chimurenga Soul,' not just the title of the debut album but Netsayi's own title for her hybrid style, named after and inspired by Zimbabwe's war against apartheid.

First released in 2006 on her own label, 'Chimurenga Soul' attracted media praise that was truly lavish. "Refreshingly, startlingly excellent," glowed Mojo magazine, while the Guardian described it as "one of the finest debuts of the year."
