Pumas+Rose is a Johannesburg-based artist weaving jazz, soul, and alternative hip hop into meditative soundscapes. His work drifts between the mystical and the personal — echoing the raw poetry of artists like Earl Sweatshirt and the smoky warmth of D’Angelo. Both rapper and curator, he builds sonic worlds rooted in memory, movement, and the collective spirit of his circle.

From late-night studio sessions in Joburg to recent collaborations with Usanele (BoyznBucks) and a Cape Town tour, Pumas+Rose crafts music that feels intimate, spiritual, and unmistakably grounded in the South African underground.
