Journey
ZiizoAfrica, born Roberto Groats, emerges from Bloemfontein, South Africa, as a compelling force in the genres of House, Amapiano, and Afro-soul. With a name that signifies "Mighty" in Arabic, he carries this emblem both as a badge of personal strength and as a testament to his artistic ethos. ZiizoAfrica’s music melds hypnotic 3-step rhythms with lush vocal harmonies, creating an auditory experience that is at once ancestral, spiritual, and futuristic. His South African roots run deep, continually influencing his sonic exploration and the narratives he crafts. ZiizoAfrica deftly channels the pulsating energy of local dance floors through tracks that honor traditional sounds while venturing boldly into future directions. "Umama," his debut single featuring SoulfulClay, embodies this duality and serves as an introduction to his rich, musical world. In exploring the intersections between cultural heritage and musical innovation, ZiizoAfrica stands as a symbol of the evolving South African music scene.
