Renowned South African singer/songwriter Simphiwe Dana joins Bonolo “Bee Sting” Molosiwa on The Hive to catch up about what she’s been up to, changing the world through music, and surviving the pandemic.
“To me, music is a calling – it’s a way of making my stamp and influence on the world around me. And the fact that my music has given me a platform to influence, I take that seriously as well. You know it’s important for me that my music leaves a mark and changes someone’s world,” she tells Bonolo Bee Sting.
Simphiwe says she’s been at home during the pandemic and she’s worked on a lot of music which she can’t wait to share with the world.
She adds, “I feel like SA is one of the places that need a lot of healing. We’ve used laughter as a coping mechanism for way too long. When things fall apart, we don’t deal with our issues.”
