Spotlight On

MashBeatz latest compilation album, 'THIS IS RELIGION', sees the producer on a journey of self-discovery weaving together multiple genres and featured SA artists–from Muzi and Raspy to Thato Saul and Maglera Doe Boy–flexing his versatility over 15 tracks.  

First To Know

“The song is about the after effects of war, that is peace. The song-making process started off with Thato Saul lacing his verse, followed by Tyson Sybateli later on. I asked Halo Yagami to send me a hook based on the concept. I also wanted some reggae type of feeling so I asked Teerage to send me an intro with that reference. The switch up at the end came from the session I had with Black Myth and I felt it would be dope on the same track,” MashBeatz tells Apple Music about his new single 'AFTER THE WAR'.
