"iimini nentsuku (which means days and nights) is the first full project that I have written entirely myself. It is close to my heart because every song is written in my home language of isiXhosa as well as isiZulu. The recurring theme in the album is past love. However, themes of hope can be heard on the songs iskhalo sabantwana and all night respectively. Key stories from events in my life can be found on the songs imali, iskhalo sabantwana and all night. In these songs I discuss childhood, hope and the story of a man who came to ask my family for money. I wrote this album with the intention that people would be left feeling hopeful, that it will leave them having experienced something new and different from what they may have heard from me previously. Writing in vernacular has allowed me to dive deeper into who I am and allows people to relate to me more closely. I hope to leave people hopeful and inspired."
