Strictly Soul Welcomes Lordkez To Namibia


Get ready, Windhoek! The wait is over. After a three-month winter hiatus, Strictly Soul, Africa’s biggest R&B party, is making its highly anticipated return to Namibia this September, and they’re bringing a headliner who is set to captivate the crowd: the one and only South African artist, Lordkez. Known for her captivating blend of R&B, soul, and hip-hop, Lordkez is not just a musician but a multifaceted artist whose creativity transcends boundaries. Her upcoming performance at Strictly Soul is a testament to her growing influence and her ability to connect with audiences across the continent, promising an unforgettable night of soulful melodies and powerful performances.

Listen to her conversation with Skrypt on 99FM about what Namibia can expect from the songstress:

Born Keziah Zoë Meyers in Kimberley, South Africa, Lordkez is a true force of nature in the new wave of African musicians. Her journey began in the church, where her mother’s organ playing and the gospel choir inspired her to develop a deeply soulful and profound sound. After time spent living abroad in Abu Dhabi, she returned to South Africa with a refined perspective, channeling her experiences into introspective and raw music. Described as a “genre-agnostic powerhouse,” she seamlessly fuses different sounds while maintaining a signature style that is both personal and universally relatable, exploring themes of love, loss, and self-discovery.

Lordkez has been making significant waves in the music industry, earning numerous accolades that solidify her as a rising star. Her impressive list of achievements includes a prominent appearance on a billboard in New York’s Times Square, a SAMA (South African Music Awards) for Best R&B Album for her debut album Testament, and highly acclaimed collaborations with esteemed artists like Bas from Dreamville and Shekhinah. With her impressive body of work and a reputation for captivating live shows, Lordkez is poised to deliver a performance that will be a highlight of Namibia’s music calendar.
