It was one of the most violent gender-based crimes to have ever been committed in South Africa, making headlines across the world and sparking a wave of protests across the country.
In posting the song on his Instagram page J’ Something wrote: "A song I wrote for #UyineneMrwetyana last year ... I hope it lands with the sincerity and love in which it was made."
Accompanied by just a guitar, J’Something reminds us of the struggles that ordinary women have to contend with on a daily basis in South Africa. It also features images of the protests that took place across the country in the days following Uyinene’s murder. Thank you for deciding to share it J'Something.
