Hotline

British Alternative Rock Quartet

Hotline was a popular South African band during the 1980s, known for their blend of rock and pop music with local African influences. The band was fronted by PJ Powers, also known as Thandeka, who later enjoyed a successful solo career. Hotline's music often carried messages against apartheid and they were part of the movement using music to promote social change. They are best remembered for their hit songs such as "Feel So Strong," which featured Steve Kekana, and "Jabulani," which became an anthem of hope and celebration among the oppressed communities. The band's influence extended beyond music, contributing to the cultural landscape of South Africa during a time of political turmoil.
