We continue with the second half of our sit down with Toya and she tells us that she is officially a London resident, yazi people move different guys? As much as this may not be huge news to the next person, we're truly happy for her. I mean, you could be living in Dubai for ten years and you still won't be considered a citizen. I admire Toya for staying grounded and how she's always managed to keep her music and style proudly South African. Midway through the interview, she switches to speaking Zulu and I see this catching some people off guard as she rarely ever speaks it. But that's what happens when you get to travel different parts of the world where your native tongue isn't understood and you have to communicate in English. I swear Toya says "Ka khulu" as much as I do when I struggle through Zulu, but she still has it and you can tell that she's proud of her roots.
She goes on to explain how her forthcoming album, Uncommodified seeks to represent women of all races and stand up against injustice. Toya passionately shares that her album is a message to young females, to motivate and help them build their confidence. The project is set to drop on the 24th of November and she defines it as an unfiltered body of work consisting of all that she's learned.
