For many upwardly mobile young people in Durban, clubbing offers the only and simplest form of escapism; it's a culture so infectious, it's almost a religion, a place where people can articulate their individuality. Black youth want to be seen in the right places, with the right people, and playing with the best toys. Out of this scene has emerged a music subgenre called Durban Kwaito Music. Filled with controversial lyrics, this music is taking over the country and creating a prominent entertainment industry in Durban.
