South African vocalist Sibongile Mkhize released Ubuntu Rhythms, an album weaving Zulu folk melodies with modern electronic textures to create therapeutic soundscapes for autistic children. Collaborating with neuroscientists, the project uses rhythmic patterns to improve sensory processing, with studies showing a 30% reduction in anxiety among listeners. The single Colors of Silence became a global anthem for neurodiversity advocates, its haunting vocals layered over traditional beads-and-drum rhythms. Mkhize’s “Sound Baths” workshops in Cape Town’s townships now draw thousands, proving music’s power to bridge divides between marginalized communities and mainstream society.
