Who Is Lady Amar?

Born in the township of Soweto, raised in Orange Farm, South Africa, Lady Amar first showed musical ambition at a young age — though she initially considered a teaching path, music won out. She studied at Fuse Academy, played gigs in Johannesburg’s club scene and gradually built a reputation as a DJ + vocalist.
