About the upcoming album: IGAGU
IGAGU, refers to a group of people singing or dancing, where there is often an individual who stands out. This individual exudes confidence, passion and leads the crowd.
“In my language IsiZulu, this individual is called IGAGU. Because of the love I have for music and the arts I have always stood out in a group of singers and creatives, I participated in music my whole school career, as I grew older I gained confidence to direct musically and lead in the choirs I was in and became IGAGU!” she adds.
The album will feature a mix of Afro-pop, Afro-house and Afro-tech songs which all highlight Azana’s vocal talent and creative diversity.
