This N That without Tempo

One of the reasons why I love being a South African is the rich and diverse culture we have. This is evident in our music. We are blessed with so much talent, both well-known and upcoming, and today I share with you one of our country's phenomenal artist. Samkelo Lelethu Mdolomba, popularly known as Samthing Soweto. He was introduced to us as one of the members of acapella group The soil  and in August 2010, he released his solo mixtape entitled ''This N That without Tempo on www.reverbnation.com. The mixtape is made up of 10 tracks,which are a fusion of beatboxing,harmonies and a bit of drum sampling,all acapella style. His sound is very unique,and his vocal abilities set him apart from all the rest,guaranteed  to leave your ear begging for more.Do listen up and download your free copy of This N That without Tempo www.reverbnation.com/samthingsoweto

Bio:Samthing Soweto is a one man band for now, he does vocals to piece his tracks together with a type of South African verses a North American Blend of folk music.
With the help of the Beat box and now with the help of Drum samples he marries the old music filled with the ever changing new age pop/alternative feel creating a new and fresh music guaranteed to be enjoyed by young and old.
