Sensational South African vocalist, Ayanda Jiya is bringing in the new sound of Mzansi’s urban soul with her Metro FM Award Nominated single Go Go Girl (Best R&B Single).
A versatile songstress hailing from North West, Ayanda Jiya delivers a refreshing blend of R&B Hip Hop Soul which has gotten her recognition from tastemakers and music fans alike.
“Go Go Girl is a song about women going through life challenges. When life makes us feel a little less of who we truly are – the song helps you let go of the pain and encourages a fresh start”.
“In the video, the woman is blessed with that moment that allows her to change her life for the better. She is a go-getter and now that she realizes her power, she goes out to the world to get what she wants and aims for what makes her happy. I wanted a simple yet classy video. I wanted people to know the face behind the song and get familiar with her. But most importantly the video concept is a story representative of my own. It reflects how I've longed to be a go-getter, how I longed to become stronger, and how I eventually transformed to being just that."
She continued, The journey thus far, including the recent Metro FM nomination has inspired me to be greater. Being acknowledged amongst the greats of our country is humbling.
This year has started on a high note in my career, there is so much more to do and I’m very excited about it all."
Gearing up for a big year, Ayanda Jiya is currently working on her upcoming album scheduled for release later this year.
