Loyiso - Blow Your Mind

Loyiso’s eclectic music taste can be attributed to his background in the Drakensberg Boys Choir, the kwaito TKZee family and his acapella and gospel stints with his family and the Bala brothers. Mr. Man has been around the musical block and it’s quite evident in his latest offering.

LB rocks this 13 track joint with a dash of R&B on “Step to the throne”, a sprinkle here and there of classical ballads such as “Found Love” and one funky hip-hop jam, simply called “I want you”. Otherwise it’s pure pop grooves galore on tunes like the title track (featuring pop singer Tasha Baxter) and the very interesting “Rosy Red” (featuring Elana Afrika). Still, he did remember to include at least one Xhosa tune, “Dali Wami”. His rendition of “Karma Police”, originally done by British rock band Radiohead, might just blow your mind. Brother man smoothly and gently delivers it nice and slow-tempo style. When it comes to LB there’s no fence sitting, it’s either he’ll blow your mind or he simply won’t.
