uMbaso: The First Serving

SPOTIFY MOM DBN_ uMbaso | Refuse

The First Serving with REFUSE at Hue Café

A link-up of street culture, sound, and self-expression — UMbaso marks Spotify's Mother of Music's official launch moment in Durban, created in collaboration with Refuse Africa.

uMbaso brings together music, fashion, and community. With a line-up featuring Chenai, TDK Macassette, ZVRI, JNR Richie, and Londi, it's a space where movement, sound, voice, and Durban identity show up - raw, local, and unmistakably MOM.

Refuse Africa joins as the official fashion partner, shaping the night's look in collaboration with Spotify. Guests can step into a custom photo booth to capture their style, with portraits shot by Durban's own Gift Banda, whose lens is tuned to the pulse of the city.

This isn't just an event — it's MOM's First Serving And she's ready to turn up the heat.
