Нахане Туре
Южноафриканский певец, актер и писатель Нахане Туре (урожденный – Нахане Лубабало Мавусо, род. 3 февраля 1988 г.) рос в глубоко христианской общине города Порт-Элизабет. Однако в 15 лет, осознав собственную гомосексуальность и публично заявив об этом, он оставил церковь и переехал сначала в Йоханнесбург, а позже в Лондон. В 19 лет, после того, как тетя купила ему акустическую гитару, будущий «звёздный мальчик» начал писать песни и выступать в клубах под псевдонимом Нахане Туре. К своему имени он решил добавить звучную фамилию Туре в честь великого малийского певца и гитариста Али Фарка Туре, влияние которого ощутимо во многих композициях дебютного альбома Нахане Brave Confusion. Выпущенный в июле 2013 года, диск поднимал актуальные вопросы касательно расовых, религиозных и сексуальных предрассудков в современном мире. В 2014 году на South African Music Awards Нахане получил за своего «первенца» музыкальную награду в категории «Лучший альтернативный альбом». Продюсером второго диска 2018 года You Will Not Die выступил Бен Кристоферсон, известный по сотрудничеству с Bat For Lashes. Бен и Нахане интуитивно угадали современные веяния, перейдя от мягкого полуакустического звука к более жесткому электронному саунду с глубоким вибрирующим басом, многочисленными битами и многослойными эффектами. Альбом, насыщенный танцевальными ритмами афробита и разбавленный госпеловскими песнопениями и блюзовыми гармониями, пришелся по вкусу, как молодежи, так и старой музыкальной гвардии – его «поддержали» Элтон Джон, который брал интервью у певца в своем радио-шоу Beats 1, и Мадонна, назвавшая в одном из интервью Нахане одним из самых любимых молодых исполнителей. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakhane

Nakhane Touré
Nakhane Mahlakahlaka (born Nakhane Lubabalo Mavuso, 3 February 1988) is a South African singer, songwriter, actor and novelist. Having grown up among a Christian community in Port Elizabeth, at 15 he moved to Johannesburg. At 19 his aunt bought him an acoustic guitar and he began writing songs, performing in open-mic clubs and eventually getting signed, calling himself Nakhane Touré in tribute to Malian musician Ali Farka Touré and as an ode to pan-Africanism. His debut album, the acoustic guitar-driven Brave Confusion, released on 29 July 2013, was influenced by Ali Farka Touré and West African music. Lyrically it explored race, religion and sexuality. In 2014, Nakhane won the Best Alternative Album award at the South African Music Awards. Although he had left the church, that night his pastor telephoned to tell him he was excommunicated. Leaving the church in 2013 and publicly celebrating his queerness with his debut album Brave Confusion. He found both controversy and critical acclaim with his starring role in John Trengove’s 2017 feature film Inxeba (The Wound), and relocated to London to record and release 2018’s heavily autobiographical album You Will Not Die. His work has been championed by Elton John, who interviewed Nakhane on his Beats 1 radio show, and Madonna, who cited him as one of her two favourite artists and said his music influenced her 2019 album Madame X. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakhane

Nakhane – You Will Not Die
The strikingly intimate debut from the London-via-South Africa singer showcases an exciting new talent despite its occasionally lead-footed pacing and stilted theatrics.
Nakhane Touré was only 19 years old when he came out as gay. Living in a small town on the Eastern Cape of South Africa in a community of strict fundamentalist Christians at the time, coming out meant the actor and musician was sent to conversion therapy, an experience that made him question his Christian faith altogether and turn to his own form of prayer for guidance. Eventually, following a controversial appearance in a queer South African film that prompted death threats, Nakhane relocated to London, where his music career has since flourished. It’s a life story loaded with enough affliction and triumph to make You Will Not Die, Nakhane’s deeply personal, grief-stricken shout of a debut album, an instant revelation on its own terms. With several stunning moments centering Nakhane’s crises of faith that give his supple voice room to strut and soar, You Will Not Die is a strikingly intimate album that succeeds despite some occasionally lead-footed pacing and stilted theatrics.
You Will Not Die was released in Europe last year, and it’s now being re-released stateside in deluxe form with five new tracks, featuring the standout song “New Brighton.” The victorious, upbeat track tackles the legacy of colonialist names and monuments conferred on towns in South Africa, with streaks of bright synths, rhythm guitar, and backing vocals by ANOHNI. “Never knew them before, don’t know them now,” Nakhane rallies proudly over the charging backdrop, “What about my mother and her sisters/Where was their name?” The song is a revelatory statement that twists the album’s recurring themes of religiosity and his personal history into bold new shapes.
Early highlight “Interloper” pulls off a similar trick, riding swaggering electric guitar licks and a rolling drum line as Nakhane details the clash between a clandestine tryst and his faith: “Good Lord, I see him now/Tell me what happened to the opium of your word,” he sings seductively, recalling Wild Beasts’ similarly wily and expressive Hayden Thorpe, “Let me put my finger in the cavern of his mouth.” Nakhane’s vocals throughout “Interloper” simmer under the surface until he lets them rise on the chorus, letting out a piercing clarion call halfway through that sets the song ablaze.
Nakhane’s voice is a deep and soulful instrument, and he employs it with both the delicacy of a feather and the weighty drop of a hammer. Yet the funeral march across You Will Not Die’s middle section undercuts Nakhane’s talent. Moody ballad “The Dead” plods into “Star Red” and “Fog,” both downcast and overly theatrical to the point of an Off-Broadway production. A few songs on You Will Not Die also feel perhaps overly indebted to ANOHNI, whether drawing from the solemn dramaturgy of Antony and the Johnsons (“Presbyteria”) or the pummeling electronics of 2016’s HOPELESSNESS (“Clairvoyant”).
Yet Nakhane proves he’s able to craft ballads while bringing his influences into play in a more intriguing way, dialing things down for a cover of New Order’s eternal, springy 1983 single “Age of Consent.” Suspended by sparse electric guitar, piano, and choral backing vocals, the cover is an opportunity for Nakhane’s voice to take center stage in unblemished fashion, climbing up to a falsetto and back down again while rendering the song completely anew. It’s a maneuver that, like “New Brighton,” offers up exceptional promise for Nakhane’s future, wherever it may lead. https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/nakhane-you-will-not-die/
