Asanda Empires proudly celebrates a milestone moment as its dynamic artists, Sosoboy Fosho and Izinkabi Zes’godi, have been officially invited to perform at the first-ever Global Creative Summit (GCS) — a landmark gathering taking place from 13–15 November 2025 in Rosebank, Johannesburg.
Their much-anticipated performance will light up the Summit’s main programme on Friday, 14 November 2025, joining an extraordinary lineup of visionary artists, creative leaders, policymakers, and investors from across Africa and around the world.
A Stage Where Africa Meets the World
Under the bold theme “Visa to the World,” the Global Creative Summit places Africa at the very heart of the global creative economy. It is more than an event — it is a declaration of African imagination, innovation, and identity.
Coinciding with the 2025 G20 Summit, hosted for the first time on African soil, this historic occasion marks a new era for Africa’s cultural and economic influence.
Delegations from Lesotho, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Seychelles, Réunion Island, Cameroon, and Eswatini, alongside G20 partners and leading cultural institutions, will take part in three days of high-level dialogues, investment showcases, and the Inside Art Fest 2025 — where Sosoboy Fosho and Izinkabi Zes’godi will stand tall among the continent’s finest voices.
The Sound of Spirit and Soul
Known for their powerful fusion of rhythm, poetry, and passion, Izinkabi Zes’godi continue to define authenticity in modern South African music. Their latest single, “Bheka Le”, has captured hearts nationwide — a true anthem of storytelling and heritage.

Meanwhile, Sosoboy Fosho is ascending rapidly as an artist of depth and global reach. His single “Mine” has been featured in Amazon UK dramas and Sony Pictures films, while his Pink Roses EP climbed to No. 6 on the Apple Music R&B and Soul albums chart — a proud milestone for Asanda Empires.

Beyond the stage, Sosoboy recently returned home to uplift his community — a heartfelt act of gratitude that saw Izinkabi Zes’godi join him in service. Together, they proved that real artistry doesn’t end with applause; it continues in compassion, in giving back, and in inspiring others.
