Though gqom is still a niche concern in Durban in terms of club play, and most of it is played in digital form by DJs at house parties and functions, the perpetual search for something fresh has made it catnip for audiences abroad, especially in the UK where more adventurous DJs are beginning to incorporate it into their bass, house and grime sets.

The word gqom derives from an onomatopoeic combination of click consonants in the Zulu language meaning a hitting drum. It is also expressed as qgom, igqom, gqomu or variants thereof.[22][23] Presumably another name is sghubu as its direct translation from the Zulu language is drum, furthermore it appears to be a local word used to describe house or the drum instrument, in general ,whilst appearing to be a sub-genre of gqom itself,too.[24][25][4][26]

Gqom emerged in the early 2010s.[5] From the mid-2010s, the genre gained prominence abroad, especially in London.[27] Gqom also plays its part in increasing business profit for local taxis as people established a day to specifically celebrate gqom called "gqom explosion" that is mostly known as iNazoke. It is celebrated by people from the city of Durban, but eventually other cities and towns in KwaZulu-Natal started celebrating it, too.[28]

In 2018 the "gqom queen"[34][35] vocalist and dancer Babes Wodumo made an appearance on the Marvel Comics, Black Panther:The Album compilation by Kendrick Lamar,[36] she also collaborated with Major Lazer and showcased gqom dance moves in the song's official music video.[37]

In 2023, Disney Plus released an afrofuturism, sci-fi animated series Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire, which includes Surf Sangoma set in year 2050 in Durban directed by Spoek Mathambo (Nthato Mokgata) and Catherine Green.The animation film's soundtrack is gqom-inspired created by music producer Aero Manyelo.[46][47][48]

It was my first time hearing a broken beat like this and I wanted to do something that was inspired by this song. And I just felt like this is what I have to make! It influenced so many gqom producers at the time. e24fc04721
