It's nearly Summer, it's extremely warmer now, we're on lockdown level one restriction meaning we will be out more. The last nine months we've heard a lot of music, and some better than others, and some serious bangers that many will catch on to at parties!
The perfect Summer song is often ubiquitous; you can hear it on the radio, television, in the streets, in people's cars - literally everywhere.
The boy doing things is back and this time he is riding along with his blood bro, one half of the B3nchmarQ duo, Jay Jody. 'tufF lucK' featuring Jay Jody produced by IceMan Beatz gives off a west cost themed vibe that will truly get the people going. It's not underground, it has commercial appeal and is a song that should be on your playlist.
Been a minute since the streets where given sing-along tracks, and that is exactly what Yanga Chief brought on his newly released single. 'Ntoni na' produced by Herc Cut The Lights features Blxckie and 25K - on the record the trio show a bold display of versatility and most importantly, they're having fun. The song just gives off vibes and is a straight Summer jam.
The celebrated rapper, Nasty C contributes to the playlist for his Flvme produced single 'Jack'. This sing-along track is an instant favourite as Nasty C yet again gets to show off his delivery range. It is a definite addictive track one should have on their Summer playlists.
The most decorated rapper in the industry K.O aka Mr Cashtime came through and blessed his fans/supporters with a new single this year, and it is FIRE! Very infectious too - K.O continues to glide on the Lunatik produced beat filled with unapologetic raps. This single is a hand-crafted to give you a good time whether you're in the car or out having drinks with your people.
This Zoocci Coke Dope produced single is a crowd-mover. Pretorian rapper, 25K The Plug displays a bold display of raunchy lyrics that's real raw and gangster. 'Pheli Makaveli' ends with a party sing-along "Pheli Makaveli, Pheli Makaveli, Pheli Makaveli....". If the clubs or events are spinning the song, they better catch up and do the right thing!
Not many artists in the HipHop fraternity have the finesse to pull this off, adding to Zingah's many contributions to the culture and the Hip Hop scene, 'Ubsantusantu' is a definite Summer banger and the music video proves just that. The song is questionable at first but once you hear it at parties and you've had a drink or two - this song will move you. This song features Durbanite, Blxckie.
One of the most streamed songs of 2021, 'Ye X4' by Blxckie serves as a street anthem and banger. Nasty C applies the pressure on this single with a fiery verse. "Blxckie, he passed me the ball and I dunk it" shows the collaborative effort of the song and synergy between the two. If the crowd is dead, make sure you que this song right up!
These two light-skinned brothers have given us a HIT that's so slept on! Shane Eagle and YoungstaCPT tag team on 'AMMO'. "AMMO" is an expression of rhythmic force reserved for two independent MC’s, unified in the midst of a “world reset” to supersede the current format of anarchy.
Criminally underrated rapper, Yung Tyran served us with a brand new hip-hop slapper with the talented Die Mondez on the raunchy Summer song, 'Yesssir'. Yung Tyran narrates on the chorus: "Yesssir, still in this b*tch I won't let up, she get this D like the letter. Pimping no matter the weather.." Yung Tyran new exactly what he was doing when he made that chorus. A definite potential club banger.
Recently released his debut album '031 To The World', the Durbanite, Lucasraps proves to us once again why he has added the name"Raps" to his stage name because he is really about it. On his single 'Slide', Lucasraps shows us the ability to create a potential hit. 'Slide' is a song you should be spinning!
"Spazz" is a definite feel-good single with an infectious chorus by K. Keed and verses by Dee Koala and Blxckie. When you feel good, make sure you play this song first to determine your entire mood for the day.
Costa Titch makes an appearance on the list for his single 'Uthini' with Blxckie and Phantom Steeze. From the jump, the song gets you hyped with the hard-knocking beat and infectious flow that Costa Titch delivers on the chorus.
Hip-hop and R&B duo and siblings, Major Steeze got a serious banger with their current single 'SLIME' which features Blxckie and The Big Hash. The boys are having fun on this record and it is definitely passed on to the listener. A club song you should be spinning. Quit sleeping.
"Mntase" is without a doubt one of the biggest hip-hop song's that was released this year in March with an incredibly infectious chorus by Blxckie once again, effortlessly repeating the word "Mntase".
Looking to turn up or get the crowd going? Make sure you have 031Choppa's single 'User' on your playlist. This collaborative effort features Dee Koala and Blxckie.
Newly released and a song many people need to get put on. Orish is not here to play and gives a hit with 'Le Na Le'. The Xhosa native has a potential club banger which DJ's should have on their sets so people can catch on before it's too late.
New wave trapper, VegasXCesar proves to be the hardest trapper in the New Wave circle with his leaked single "44OUR" which is a must have song for your playlist. A party starter and crowd rocker. Don't sleep on this one.
Benny Chill understands the task when it's time to create vibey music and 'African Boujee' is no different - An easy favourite this song can become once played more than once. Play this song when you're out with great company!
a spacey synth melody that instantly takes us to another dimension, another well curated or rather deliciouz composition by the producer. The spotlight however doesn’t shine far brighter on him as it does with fellow label mate Trvp JaxxxN, who floats and grabs on every 808 and kick willing to hold him down on the near three minute song. Stop sleeping and plug yourself!!
'BYOR BO DESE Thato Mathata' an instant fan-favourite from the first listen, Mashbeatz & Thato Saul give us their collaborative effort with 'Byor Bo Dese' that features the talented rapper, Maglera Doe Boy. This song is another must-have on a playlist for your car rides and your parties. The song pushes the button on real hip-hop!
Ex Global & Krish form a duo to give us the real music, one being "Milli" that features Jay Jody and Priddy Prince. New comer Priddy Prince handles the chorus with care with the help from Jay Jody while both Ex Global and Krish serve us the verses. This that real road-trip, traffic time music. A feel good joint that you should be bumping to right now.
This interesting collaboration hears a tag team effort by Lucasraps, Blxckie, Priddy Prince and Indigo Stella that dj, Yung Seruno brought together to create a serious banger. This song needs a full capacity event for it to go all the way UP!
Cape Townian rapper and singer KashCPT is one criminally underrated artist that continuously serves his fans/supporters with amazing music. From singing to rapping, he does it all! On his 2021 single, "OPS" KashCPT is given the platform to show his versatility and his breath control as he delivers a fiery delivery on a hard hitting Baker Got The Keys beat. You need to add this to your playlist this Summer.
This is one of them feel-good Summer jams that the hustla, Emtee delivered with the assist by rapper Moozlie. This is at that road-trip, chillas soundtrack you should be adding on your playlist right now!
