Sho Madjozi (@shomadjozi) was an infant when the oppressive system of segregation was dismantled in 1994 in South Africa and she grew up watching her parents navigate the enduring racial injustices. In the landscape of post-Apatheid South Africa, Madjozi's unapologetic Pan-African pride is an antidote to the devastation of cultural erasure. Her music gives voice to a newly-forged South African identity. The rapper has captured the attention of South Africa’s fashion community, too.
