Back with a bang: Amanda Black releases smash hit with DJ Lag
She has been the lyrical goddess, and her smash hits attest to that. However, in recent years she has hogged headlines for several reasons.
However, despite all being said, it seems as if she is back with a bang after going awol on the musical stage. Her new hit song proves that she is the jewel of afro-pop, and she never ceases to amaze with her angelic voice.
Her new song
Amanda Black and Dj Lag released a new single together titled Destiny. Fans were surprised as she came through with a brand unique sound. Amanda’s music is mostly afro soul and afro-pop. It was a shock for fans to hear her singing along to a house beat. What surprised people even more, is that she’s singing in English in the song.
Everyone is quite aware she’s a musical powerhouse, but; when an artist keeps releasing music in the same genre, it becomes hard to disassociate them with their famous sound.

Ambitious Records features
When she was still signed under the record label Ambitious Records, she featured on many songs in different genres but kept her authentic signature sound. The other artists are rapping in the song Sizophumelela by Ms Pru from the label, but she’s singing. Her voice blended with the other artist’s verses very well. Sizophumelela was one of the songs that made it even harder to believe she could sing in any other way.
