Movers & Shakers

MISUNDERSTOOD was born in 2016, found by Xolani Nojekwa who was studying Marketing Management in Damelin College, Mowbray Campus. It is an dope urban street wear which reflects on people being judged, mistaken, taken for granted, treated unfairly and underrated but their outcome is to become someone better.

Its main aim is to sink the minds of the new generation to make something of themselves and always strive for excellence. Celebrities such as AKA, Kendrick Lamar and Lil Wayne were the ones who inspired me to believe in myself as they were also criticized, turned down, and judged, as that also became their motivation regardless being MISUNDERSTOOD.It is the sign of doing something that will have a positive impact in your life and the people around you.

Lize Mynhardt’s love for music began at the tender age of six years old when she began playing the piano and acoustic guitar.

Today, Lize is 23 years old and is considered an all-round musician due to her ability to play over five instruments as well as sing. In 2014 Lize put her BComm LLB studies at Stellenbosch University on hold when she got the opportunity to compete in Idols, where she was placed second runner up.

Dare to Daydream – her debut as a solo singer – was one of the first songs Lize ever wrote, and was recently found by accident as a voice note on an old iPad she had given to her brother. The single was written when Lize was suffering from insomnia, which left her hallucinating, sleep deprived and – above all – inspired. Not to worry, it’s not a depressing song at all; quite the opposite in fact.
