Meet Royal Family, the youngest music collective in Malawi

January 01, 2016

The young artists from Lilongwe, Malawi ith an average age of 15, Royal Family is the youngest music collective in their country. Their real names are "Pemphero Mwansambo, Charles Mwansambo, Nohakhelha Chaweza". They all met and discovered their skills in music while in school at Kalibu Academy. Set up in early 2015, Royal Family is using the adept AK-on-the-Board as a producer for their music.

Royal Family is a collective of young artists from Lilongwe that are set to send  shockwaves in the Malawian music industry.

Their latest single "I got you" is a new-school feel of a song that sees the youthful Pemphero Mwansambo crooning on the chorus in ways that belies her age, laying down a solid foundation for the rappers in the collective to express themselves so well.
