On success, resilience and passion – Toya K
Today’s guest is a truly remarkable young woman. An example of resilience, perseverance, unapologetic optimism and relentless hard work, all in service of her lifelong pursuit to live and breathe her passion and purpose.
I felt truly blessed to have had the chance to meet the mega talented and warm-hearted Toya K, during her short
visit to Amsterdam, from her current residence in Paris. In this episode, we discuss her roots, her values, stemmed from a unique upbringing in the the serene village of Grashoek, Namibia, her inspiring mindset, which we can all learn from and her selfless dedication to a greater purpose beyond her music success.
Toya K’s musical journey began at a young age when she actively participated in school choirs and talent shows. This passion for music was further fueled by the vibrant musical culture of the predominantly Ju/hoansi San community in her village, where singing and dancing were integral parts of life.
She particularly resonates with artists like Nina Simone, whose impactful song"Black Bird" left a profound mark on her, shaping her identity as a black woman in the most empowering way.
Toya made her debut in the music scene with the release of her song "On Time" in February 2022. She recently released her debut EP ‘Divine Intervention’ - a fusion of Afropop, Amapiano, and R&B/Soul elements, reflecting her diverse musical talents and her ability to evoke deep emotions
through her music. She gives more details on her music process and the meanings of some of her most successful songs to date during our conversation. Please enjoy and don’t forget to follow Toya on Instagram @toyurrr and Spotify @Toya K.
