about

After introducing Griffit Vigo ‘the Gqom legend’ on the Originators EP on Gqom Oh! Records back in February with the percussive anthem Ree's Vibe and the historical track featured on MTV Base Gqom Nation documentary "Gqom 5” - Gqom Oh! is finally ready to release Griffit Vigo’s first solo single ‘DJ’ on a 7" vinyl, with on the b-side another Gqom viral Durban track coming from the numeric series "Gqom 6”.
Griffit Vigo, a real innovator in the Gqom genre
who grew up in Clermont and started to produce
music around 2007, has attained a legendary
status amongst his peers as he was one of the originators of gqom, inventing sounds as Umshanelo (meaning broom in Zulu) and chopping vocals that everybody then started to sample.
Many of his beats were appropriated or sampled, so now the time has finally come for him to show his talent and unique style and inspire the listeners in the same way he inspired everyone in Durban.
This single introduces his forthcoming album on Gqom Oh!, to be released in September/October 2018 entitled ‘Gqom is Alive’.
As the Gqom sound has massively changed in the past year, taking over South Africa and the world, also by evolving into a more commercial-focused and melodic branch which derives from Sgubhu, Griffit Vigo’s intention is to keep the original Gqom sound as pure and authentic as it was when it was first birthed whilst still pushing the sound forward in the future.
