Heavy K – driving Afro set in The Lab Johannesburg

BUDX and Mixmag return to JHB for another series of The Lab Johannesburg – featuring the best homegrown South African stars and hype international guests. Next up: Heavy K Mkhululi Siqula - better known as Heavy-K or the ‘drum boss’, as referred to by fans - steps up to the decks next week in The Lab Johannesburg. Born in South Africa’s Eastern Cape and influenced by the pioneering musicians around him, Heavy-K moved to Johannesburg at just 21 to pursue a career in production. Siqula has spent the past decade finding his niche and now specialises in blends of Afro house, amapiano, and percussive tracks that first landed him the title of ‘drum boss’ all those years ago.
