Bravo Le Roux’s album returns to the top 30 charts

Cape Town-based rapper, Sinesipho Peter, popularly known as Bravo Le Roux, shared his appreciation to his supporters.

In July, Bravo released an album called Igazi, iinyembezi nombilo where he featured artists such as Sjava and iFani. The album did very well as it received an overall 1.2 million streams on all music-streaming platforms (YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, Boomplay, Audiomack and YouTube Music) in the first week of its release.

The award-winning artist has been working alongside Inkabi Zezwe (Sjava and Big Zulu) since the release of his album. His opening song of the album, Idini, gained recognition on TikTok in the previous week after people used it for their vlogs.

In screenshots Bravo shared on Instagram, the album went back to the Top 30 chart of the Hip Hop/Rap category, positioned at 29, and on the Top 100 chart across all genres, positioned at 89, on Apple Music.

Bravo thanked his supporters on Instagram for “believing in his music more than” him. He captioned his post:

“We are climbing the charts again. Igazi, iinyembezi nombilo album is back on the top 30 on the Hip Hop/Rap & top 100 across all genres. Ndiyabulela ngondenza umntu ebantwini & believing in our music more than us sometimes. ?? Link in bio. ?.”
