Introducing JembeSoul. 2018’s first Naked Soul Session featured artist
He is being featured at the first Naked Soul Session (NSS) of the year out at Thapong visual arts this coming February, the first time me and Jembe properly connected was at a musical experience in his home town of Lobatse sometime in 2017. It was obvious on my end at least that this dude’s talent was immense and his passion for music just shined through, i went on to see him select numerous times at Jam For Brunch and we’ve had many exchanges about building music and creating something special. It’s no surprise then based on his resume that he is deserving of whats coming to him early in 2018 and find myself so excited to see him feature at the next NSS where i know he’ll be dishing out goodies galore for the masses – eargasm.
Here’s a little bit about the man and his music as narrated from his TraxSource page where he is international published”
