The thematic underpinnings of “Cape Death” delve into the complexities of existence, mortality, and the stark realities of life in Cape Town—a city often romanticized for its beauty but less often revealed for its harsh conditions and inequality.

This is a perspective seldom experienced by the average tourist but deeply ingrained in the daily lives of its residents.

The music video showcases a myriad of locations across Cape Town, giving viewers a comprehensive look at the city’s lesser-known aspects. It culminates in a riveting live performance at The Armchair Theatre in the Observatory area of Cape Town.
