Kwesta drops 'The Big Bro Theory', a powerful tribute to his artistic journey
The offering, which Kwesta has proclaimed be his "homecoming" album, consists of 12 tracks and features an array of collaborations with notable local artists, including the exciting track 'Ghost' with Blxckie, 'Out of Love' with Amanda Black, and ' Joy ' with Nkosazana Daughter, which was released a month ago.
The album not only marks a new chapter in his illustrious career but also serves as a heartfelt tribute to his lasting legacy and influence within the hip hop landscape of South Africa.
Having carved his name in the industry for over 15 years, Kwesta embraces an esteemed role as a Grootman (big brother), taking pride in the narratives he has shaped and the lessons he has learned along the way.
As he puts it, 'I've grown, I've led, I've learned. This album is me owning that journey, the highs, the lows, and everything in between. It's the theory of what it means to be a Big Bro, musically and personally.'
Kwesta expressed his excitement about the release, stating: "Thank you to everyone that's been riding with me for all these years, it's not a short time, it's been 18 years and you've shown me nothing but love and I appreciate every single one of you.
He elaborated on the depth of this project, saying: "This album, 'The Big Bro Theory' is really a culmination of all these years, all these sounds that we've built up as we were going, that you've loved, that you've supported.
"This is, you know, 'OG Kwesta', this is 'new-ish Kwesta', this is 'try something new Kwesta', but all in the hopes of moving the culture forward.
