Kommanda Obbs to grace the Black Labone stage!

 The Love Black Labone has been getting from the mountain Kingdom (Lesotho) is worthy of mention taking into consideration that we consistently welcomed artists from Lesotho, more so than any other neighboring nation, thereby fostering a rich dialogue and appreciation for the diversity of Southern African music.

We are raring with excitement to announce that this week we will be hosting the honourable Kommanda Obbs. With lyrics that resonate with themes of identity, heritage, and societal narratives, Kommanda Obbs offers the listener a profound insight into the cultural landscape of the Basotho . These connections we have made with the artists of Lesotho are not merely about stage performance but are a testament to the power of music in bridging divides.
