FAKA
Features // MagazineFAKA's a multi-media project striving to make a positive change in South Africa and defending black queer culture through art.
We’re thrilled to have the Johannesburg duo Fela Gucci and Desire Marea, known under the collective moniker of FAKA, to join us for a mini-tour around the Netherlands. For one of the stops along the way, we’ve teamed up with PIP, our favourite venue in the capital Den Haag, to show FAKA a glimpse of what this country can offer 🙂 You may or may not have caught FAKA in our magazine’s latest issue as well as on Mykki Blanco’s documentary for i-D; this creative duo sure is something. FAKA are a multi-media project mixing music, fashion, photography, writing, and much more striving to make a positive change in South Africa, while defending black queer culture through art. We promise you a show that’ll blow you away. Using gqom -the bass-heavy South-African genre – in combination with their performance on stage, FAKA are a piece of art. FAKA be hitting up the following cities: Rotterdam, Utrecht, and Amsterdam. Warm up your feet, ’cause they’ll be getting a lot of action.
