South African rapper Kwesta makes his acting debut in “Melody of Affection”, a film set in the musically rich streets of Soweto. The movie has sparked debate among audiences on social media, with critiques of its quality and platform of release, though it reflects South Africa’s cultural milieu and artists’ dedication to new artistic ventures. Despite initial reluctance, Kwesta’s acting performance showcases his dedication to the project, which was personally financed by the director and sold to Netflix.
