Ascension: T oya D e L a z y T he dress code was “dandy”. The vibe was almost indescribable. The multi-faceted Toya Delazy (inimitable singer, pianist, performer and dancer) launched her new album! Whoop! DJ’s were spinning old school 90’s tunes and chart topping grooves. And when it came to main act, people were giving physical expression to ‘Forbidden Fruit’ and the crowd was more than ecstatic to be soaked in the sounds of the never before performed ‘Why Hate’. KONG was reverberating with tremors of mindmelting music as the style and groove of the crowd reflected the raucous rhythm. We’re still wondering if the party ever stopped.
