JoyRukanza Builds Anticipation for Impending Debut Album With New Song, “Queendom”

JoyRukanza releases the music video for her third single “Queendom” from her highly anticipated album MATTER-MORE-FOR-SIS.

“Queendom” is a pop and reggae-infused record with lyrical content that serves to share an aggressive message about the empowerment of females, through the use of a love story. It is an ode to all African queens and through its production conveys power and dominance. Faster than her usual ballads and bearing both subdued and comparatively loud segments, “Queendom” is a single release in which JoyRukanza fans and beyond are likely to take interest. The song will be officially live on all digital streaming platforms on the 8th of October.

JoyRukanza said, “This one is very special to me. “Queendom” is a departure from the usual soft melodies that I am known for, and in this record, I specifically echo sentiments that empower women and probes them to be the best version for themselves. I wrote the song after the slewed rise in gender-based violence cases which were recorded globally when the pandemic started and a lot of us were locked down. This project was extremely challenging yet rewarding. We had to plan and coordinate the project remotely due to the pandemic, which saw me working with a team of dedicated creators across Africa. I recorded the song in Zimbabwe in 2020 and shot the visuals this June in two Tanzanian locations – Dar es Salaam and Bagamoyo. I travelled from the UK, my makeup artist flew in from South Africa with a wardrobe that was curated remotely by my South African stylist while we had our creative producer travelling from Zimbabwe. It was an honour to work with an extremely dedicated cast and crew from Tanzania while also experiencing the rich cultural offerings from historical sites like Bagamoyo”.

Joy Roselyn Rukanzakanza is a Zimbabwean singer and songwriter known artistically as JoyRukanza. In January 2021, she released her debut song “New Day” featuring South Africa’s hip-hop sensation and multi-award act – KiD X. After a successful reception of New Day, she followed up with another successful record, “Roses”. She has been featured in Enosoul’s projects and is also part of Chymamusique’s recent offering “Musique”.

The colourful tapestry of JoyRukanza’s music reveals itself in the multi-genre offering in her upcoming debut album MATTER-MORE-FOR-SIS, which is set to be released before the end of 2021.
