Lookatups Teases “Son of Joy” Album

Lookatups is one of the most exciting emerging talents out of Cape Town, and he has been gearing up to release his Son of Joy album. He took to his socials to share a short snippet of a song on the album. The untitled snippet is a soft-spoken song that sees Lookatups sing in his native isiXhosa. Lookatups is mostly known for his bass-heavy fusion of trap, but it seems we might get to hear a different, more reflective side of him, which we haven’t heard him explore in his brief catalogue. Lookatups has been tight lipped on the details around Son of Joy but it’s safe to assume that we will be getting it sooner rather than later.

There is always a story behind the music and I want to tell it. My taste in music hovers somewhere between alternative Hip Hop and R&B from the African diaspora. Follow me everywhere @lesiba__ for commentary and reviews.
