AFTER the release of his De’Grace EP over three years ago, Jordan MoOzy makes his return to music with “Kalahari Coyote” an Extended Play (EP).
The EP, which was released recently, seamlessly blends influences that reflect MoOzy’s upbringing, creating a unique sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking.
Containing three engaging tracks namely “No Time”, “Chivalry” and “Do Re Mi”, MoOzy said the EP draws on 80’s soundscapes and adds to them a cross-cultural twist.
MoOzy, who is a native of Botswana with Zimbabwean heritage, is a singer, songwriter, and record producer signed under the company Point Black.
“It’s about finding ways to thrive in environments that may not have been designed for you and creating a sense of community in the process.
“The Kalahari Coyote is a symbol of resilience and adaptation born from the intersection of cultures and landscapes.
“Inspired by the harsh yet beautiful Kalahari Desert, this fictional creature embodies the spirit of perseverance. As a reflection of my own journey as an immigrant, the Kalahari Coyote represents the struggles and triumphs of finding a home in unfamiliar territories,” he said.
On Chivalry, for instance, MoOZy sets out to conquer his destiny by unfurling the unknown, making space for himself through both his writing and strides between afrobeats, hip hop and r&b-infused synth pop.
