Kaleo Sansaa has been acknowledged as a multifaceted insider-tip on European and South African stages. She has been nominated for several awards in Europe, including the award for best Newcomer by Pop NRW in 2019. In July 2018, Kaleo Sansaa toured in Southern Africa visiting Capetown, Joburg and Lusaka. Kaleo Sansaa can best be described as a Newcomer enchanting audiences with a brand new sound: Sun-drunk sound and Solar-based Hip-Hop! Kaleo Sansaa invented both of these terms to adequately describe her unique sound. It’s music that comes from the center of the sun. She describes the sun/SAN as her main source of inspiration, as reflected in her name ‚SANSAA‘ : SAN= Sun. SAA is the Swahili term for time. Therefore, Sansaa means infinite sun or infinite suntime.
