Kitso Seti presents 1 Samuel 15:3 - In Soweto, My Love..

Kitso Seti is a Cape Town-based musician, writer, and performer whose sound is grounded in the raw, street-born energy of Spaza music. Emerging from Khayelitsha, Seti’s early exposure to hip-hop, poetry, and township storytelling laid the foundation for an artistic voice that is both sharp-edged and deeply observant. Spaza didn’t just shape his music, it shaped his worldview, informing a practice that values urgency, honesty, and experimentation that is geared towards societal change.

Now building on that foundation, Seti draws influence from spoken word and jazz improvisation and instrumentation, using these elements to push his sound in new directions. His music resists easy classification, blending spoken word, live instrumentation, and urban rhythm into a style that is unmistakably his own.

Seti has performed on a range of stages across the country, sharing platforms with leading voices such as Makhafula Vilakazi, Sabelo Soko, iPhupho L’ka Biko, Tankiso Mamabolo, Internet Athi, Ndlulamthi, and Enkosi Simelane, to mention a few. These collaborations and appearances have built strong anticipation around his forthcoming debut album, which promises to extend his reputation as one of the most exciting voices in South Africa’s music scene.

With recent performances building hype and setting the tone for the album’s release, Kitso Seti stands poised at the edge of a new chapter - one where his sound continues to evolve, but always returns to the streets, communities and families that raised him.
