MotionMan

Cape Town, South Africa

Defined by the calling to move and be moved, Motion Man’s music and artistic energy is chronicled as having a compelling hybrid sound. The up-and-coming rapper, singer, songwriter and producer has forged a name for himself in Cape Town, as he looks to Afro-Trap, Afro-Amapiano, Drill, Deep House, Abstract Jazz and Neo-Soul for inspiration. Lockdown was his Genesis. The vinyl resurgence renewed his undying love for music, with an ease echoed in his flow. Motion Man’s music fills the diasporic air without effort and the lively tempo of his sound elevates and transcends cultural boundaries. One could say motion of his melodies blooms with every bar, as they course through the cerebral cortex like a wakeful dream, and so heady is his aura on stage.
