About Wakadinali

Oscar ‘Scar’ Mandela and Domani Munga have been friends and rap lovers since childhood in the early 2000s as kids in primary school. It wasn’t until 2016 that the duo truly folded their sleeves and got serious about music. In 2016, they caught everyone’s attention when they were featured in Khaligraph Jones’ 2016 ‘Khaligraph Presents Cypher’. Their flow had little viscosity, moving swiftly like a river with a full belly during the rainy season. Sewersydaa, the third member of Wakadinali was initially mostly involved in art direction for Wakadinali before joining them formally in 2019.

The group of three has been making waves in the music industry for years. They have released several successful albums, singles, collaborations and cyphers, each one showcasing their unique style and impressive lyrical abilities. Their tracks are full of hard-hitting beats and catchy hooks that become part of the zeitgeist more often than not.
