Queen Sono follows the story of a secret South African clandestine agent who tackles criminal operations while dealing with crises in her personal life – nothing that the ass-kicking Pearl Thusi can’t handle in the first Netflix-commissioned African series.
But every heroine needs a punchy soundtrack to accentuate her story and Queen Sono‘s is no different – the official Apple Music playlist that dropped on Friday is equally as banging at the series.
From the pace-setting of DJ Maphorisa’s “Midnight Starring” to the tenderness of Inge Beckmann’s “Korreltjie Sand” to the multiple bangers of Kenya’s beloved Sauti Soul – there’s something here musically for everyone.
Listen to the playlist below and if you haven’t yet tuned into Queen Sono, use this week to rectify that.
