BULAWAYO-based rapper Noluntu J says she is excited to be one of the headline acts at this year’s Shoko Festival.
Running under the theme ‘The Take Back’, the festival is scheduled for September 28 to 30 in Harare and Chitungwiza.
Noluntu J will perform on the opening night at Moto Republik, at the Mash Up night. The event will also host The Women’s Cypher, which will feature Young Gemini and Banshee.
“The fact that this is my first time at Shoko excites me. what excites me more is the amazing talent I will share the stage with,” Noluntu J said.
“I am ready for the night; I’m ready to show the world what I have been cooking. I will perform new and old songs, I am excited and ready to show off the raps, the fashion side of me, the outfits and the blue hair.
“I have been rehearsing well and thanks to Boi Tricky and Sparks 45 who have been helping me out with my set. “All is set for me to rock Harare at the festival.”
This year's edition will feature a star-studded line up of headline acts including the NAMA-award winning rapper Bling4, globetrotting Zimbabwean singer, Gemma Griffiths and the popular Afrobeats artiste, Nutty O. Also headlining the festival is South Africa's Xabiso Vili the current World Poetry Slam Champion — and Botswana's multi-award winning Afro-pop artiste, Jordan Moozy.
