Today, hip-hop heavyweights from South Africa, Sjava and Big Zulu, launched their much-awaited joint album, “Ukhamba,” which immediately took over the radio and streaming services.
Inkabi Zezwe, the duo’s collective name, has been steadily generating buzz ahead of this release. The album’s popularity was predicated on its first track, “Umbayimbayi,” which became platinum a week after going gold.
The 10-track album “Ukhamba” seamlessly fuses Sjava and Big Zulu’s different styles, making it an engrossing listen from beginning to end. The CD explores the kinship between the two musicians, who are both from KwaZulu-Natal’s Bergville. Sjava stated that the timing of the collaboration resulted in an organic flow throughout the song.
The pair in leopard print holding a unifying object is seen on the album’s cover image, which has been altered to represent their shared goal. Their followers, anticipating the project’s release, connected with its visual representation.
‘Ukhamba’ quickly became popular on social media after its release as admirers praised the well-executed effort. Given the artists’ strong ties to their hometown, the record has also received praise for referencing the local scene.
