## Appears on

### [John Cena](https://waxonia.com/track/sho-madjozi--john-cena/)

*2019 · No. 7 in [Gqom](https://waxonia.com/genre/gqom/)*

Gqom's rhythmic ideas turned into outright pop, in Xitsonga, about a wrestler. Included because a genre that could not do this would have stayed in Durban.

*2019 · Picked by [The Waxonia Desk — Out of Durban](https://waxonia.com/selection/the-desk-gqom-out-of-durban/)*

Gqom's rhythmic ideas turned into outright pop in Xitsonga. Whether that is the sound escaping or the sound being spent is the argument the genre is still having with itself.
