Fourteenbeers Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 (edited) day 2 I didn't understand a word, but Brenda had a beautiful voice. A little bit about her background: "Brenda Nokuzola Fassie was a South African anti-apartheid Afropop singer. Her bold stage antics earned a reputation for "out rageousness". Affectionately called MaBrrr by her fans, she was sometimes described as the "Queen of African Pop" or the "Madonna of The Townships".
