“God is good, All the time,” wrote Modiselle, while Mbali remarked, “Oh man sis. I love this for you.” Beverley Steyn also expressed her pride for Lamayne, saying, “My sister, I am so proud of you. Thank you, Jesus.”
This transformative experience comes just days after the release of Lamayne's latest album, “Doves and Scones”, which showcases her exceptional versatility as an artist.
Blending hardcore rap with R&B elements, the album is praised as a masterclass that encapsulates themes of spiritual rebirth and personal growth.
The project signifies a new chapter in Lamayne's career, emphasising her journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
The album opens powerfully with the track “Come Outside”, which establishes Lamayne’s commanding presence in the rap scene.
Following this, “Frisbee”, featuring emerging talent Indigo Stella, bursts with infectious energy and confidence, further solidifying Lamayne’s status as a force to be reckoned with in the industry.
Notably, her collaboration with K.Keed on the track “Drama” adds a dynamic flair to the album, while the star-studded track “What’s Next” features contributions from fellow artists Manu Worldstar, Sizwe Alakine, and Kane Keid, creating a high-octane anthem filled with explosive energy.
Transitioning from bold and assertive lyricism to the raw emotion encapsulated in “Bleed Mama”, featuring Emtee and Nathan Blur, Lamayne has created one of the album’s most touching moments.
The track serves as a touching tribute to mothers, seamlessly blending Emtee’s signature flow with Blur’s soul-stirring hook, resonating with listeners on a profound level.
As Lamayne embarks on this new chapter of her life, both through her spiritual journey and her music, her resilience and commitment to living purposefully shine as a beacon of inspiration to many.
