Lira speaks up against women abuse

Loading player...
This year, First For Woman decided to do something different in the fight against domestic violence by putting together a song 'My Body (Stand UP)' that speaks to women who have been abused - whether physically, sexually, or emotionally - condemning this behaviour.
The song, which saw the collaboration of Mzansi musicians Lira, Jules from Goodluck, Gigi Lamayne, and Mariechan, is an initiative by First For Woman and seeks to not only raise awareness but also support women who have been abused by donating all proceeds from downloads to the First For Woman Foundation.
