Isicathamiya

Isicathamiya emerged in 1920s-30s South Africa from Zulu migrant workers, meaning 'to walk softly' in Zulu. The genre features soft foot movements, complex four-part vocal harmonies, and choreographed a cappella singing by all-male groups. Songs explore longing, migration, and spiritual endurance, reflecting workers' experiences in mining compounds while maintaining Zulu cultural identity through performance and competition.
