Rising Lesotho-raised South African rapper and producer saveHXPE returns with a bold new single, “80s Baby,” featuring the effortlessly charismatic BabyDaiz.
Fusing nostalgic textures with forward-facing ambition, the track is a vibrant reclamation of African identity, challenging global stereotypes and rewriting the sonic DNA of hip-hop.
The production, layered with lo-fi soul samples and intricate drum patterns, sits somewhere between cassette tape memories and tomorrow’s party soundtrack. It’s experimental yet grounded — a style that has earned saveHXPE over 3.3 million Spotify streams to date, and co-signs from legends like Erykah Badu and Khuli Chana have mentioned him as one of his Top 5 Hip Hop artists.
Known for his genre-defying approach, saveHXPE’s previous work, including his acclaimed EP 'Still Deciding', has cemented him as a voice for a generation unbothered by borders. With “80s Baby,” he doubles down — mixing swagger with sincerity, fashion with fury, and beats with meaning.
