\"\"<\/a>They\u2019re best known for delivering some of South Africa\u2019s hottest house hits. But on 25 May \u2013 Africa Day, Malehloka and Genevieve will be joining Cameroon\u2019s soul singer, Wax to offer a live concert at the Bassline in Newtown, Johannesburg.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wax is a powerful performer who\u00a0has moved listeners across the world with his sensual guitar rhythms and deep lyrics, often laced with social activism. As a recording artist and producer, he is known for his versatility between genres, ranging from R&b to house. However, his live performances are deeply rooted in acoustic folk.\u00a0 African music expert, Richard Nwamba once compared him to the all-time Cameroonian greats, opining that the country had found a youngster capable of walking into the shoes of Richard Bona or Sally Nyolo.<\/p>\n

\u201cI grew up listening to the music of African greats such as Salif Keita and Manu Dibango. Developing a music career in South Africa has added a new cultural element \u2013 and this brings a fresh, exciting flavor to my shows, \u201csays Wax.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Miss Real, Mr Regular\u2019 singer will use this concert to kick off an African tour, before travelling to Cameroon and Nigeria. Also serenading at the concert is Soulistic Music\u2019s Malehloka Hlalele, simply known as Maleh. She has within short time, made a name for herself as one of South Africa\u2019s most powerful voices. With hits such as \u2018Uzongilinda\u2019 and \u2018Falling\u2019, Maleh has uncovered House music\u2019s hottest property, but also remains jazz\u2019s best kept secret.<\/p>\n

Guest artists include vocalist and songwriter, Genevieve who shot to fame with the hits like \u2018I don\u2019t care\u2019, along with\u00a0Motswako star, Motso.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
