Johannesburg, South Africa – Science and music? They’re tighter than you think. According to the powers that be at Cotton Fest, it’s all connected. From the beats to the instruments, there’s a whole lot of maths and science going on in the background. The way we feel the music? That’s science talking to our souls, they say!
“We’re drawing inspiration from the atom – the real OG of science. Atoms are the building blocks of everything, and just like that, every creative move we make sparks something scientific. Every scientific discovery? It’s got a creative twist,” reads a statement from the organisers.
In 2025, Cotton Fest is dropping gems for the whole fam, showing them “how music, art and science are always vibing off each other”.
This is more than a festival – it’s a whole new world. In the late Riky Rick’s own words, remember, “We never die, we multiply.” This is testament to the undeniable growth and power of Cotton Fest – as it continues to honour the memory of one of the biggest hip-hop stars South African has ever seen, and his influence on local pop culture.
