DanceAfrika is proud to announce the release of Beyond Toshi (DA020), the most personal and ambitious album of Toshi’s celebrated career, now available on all major streaming platforms following its launch on Friday, 3 April 2026.
The album was officially launched at an exclusive event in Johannesburg, proudly sponsored by Johnnie Walker, bringing together industry tastemakers, media and fans to celebrate this landmark moment in Toshi’s career.
A 12-track journey through love, identity, resilience and spiritual growth, Beyond Toshi draws on the full spectrum of contemporary African sound – weaving Afro-Soul, Afro-House, Neo-Gospel and African Electronica into a coherent, deeply soulful body of work that stands as a defining statement in South African music.
“Beyond Toshi is everything I’ve been building towards. It’s bigger than music – it’s a statement of who I am and where African sound is going.” –Toshi
