Ep.66: Introducing South African musician Moonchild Sanelly
Manage episode 449927461 series 1998964
Stance is back with singer and dancer Moonchild Sanelley as we approach our 8th year on air! In Season 4, Chrystal Genesis explores the people, places, stories, and ideas shaping our creative world.
And with that, we head to South Africa to hear about Full Moon, the upcoming album from Port Elizabeth-born, Jo’burg-based singer, dancer and businesswoman Moonchild Sanelly.
Born Sanelisiwe Twisha, she was raised on dance routines and church choirs and has since created a sound that’s entirely her own, which she calls Future Ghetto Funk—an eclectic fusion of hip hop, punk rock, house, and dance-pop with South African gqom and kwaito.
She has also collaborated with artists like Beyoncé, Self Esteem, Nile Rodgers, Ezra Collective, and Gorillaz.
Chrystal sat down with her to discuss her third studio album, Full Moon, her patented teal Moonmop hairstyle, and the inspiration behind her new record's themes of sexuality, reclaiming power, motherhood, vulnerability and forgiveness.
