'We will make music of national unity' Boom Shaka

--:--
"In this episode of 30 Years of Democracy, we sit down with Boom Shaka, one of Mzansi's most cherished groups, as they celebrate three decades in the music industry in 2024. Group members Theo Nhlengethwa and Junior Sokhela reflect on their debut single 'It’s About Time,' a hit that marked the beginning of their iconic and profound impact on South Africa’s music scene during the country’s new dawn. They also speak about the spirit of Lebo Mathosa who sadly died in 2006.
The band not only defined a sound for young people but also influenced fashion, energy, and provocative choreography, inspiring the youth of their time.
