You can already feel that the impending festive season is going to be on fire, with the lockdown hopefully being declared over, South Africans are going to be out in full force having the time of their lives. A lot of artists are already busy making hit songs that will be the festive anthem and we are sure Amapiano will be leading the pack in the party music space.
Thabo Ngubane, or popularly known as Mas Musiq has had a fantastic career in the past year, claiming some of the biggest Amapiano tracks of the year 2019. Songs such as “Indaba ka Bani”, and the recent track “eMcimbini” from the Scorpion Kings Live release.
Since he signed to BlaQ Boy Music, like being part of one of the fastest-growing music stables in the country, under the experienced eye of DJ Maphorisa, who together with Kabza De Small, has been instrumental in the Amapiano genre. DJ Maphorisa has been nothing short of grooming and supporting his fellow music producers, which is why the music genre has gained so many followers and seen so many songs released in such a short space of time.
His first release, Mambisa, saw the rise of Mas Musiq and his music style of production really came into form. The number of hits on that first release earned him a great deal of respect amongst Amapiano lovers and set his production skills apart from the rest, some even noted that his music is a refined version of the YANOs. With similar beats and chords as the original Amapiano, his production delivers a more minimalistic but full-bodied sound.
When Mas Musiq signed to BlaQ Boy Music, he came in with no experience of the mainstream culture but managed to make an impact with his own style of music regardless and gain the respect of many music lovers. The release of Mambisa II has proven that he isn't a one-hit-wonder, instead, his career is on the up. There are already a number of bangers on his latest release and we expect them to be firm favourites this festive season.
Just the features on the album tracklist are already making fans crazy and some fans already have firm favourites that they can't stop listening to.
"By the look of eyes and the featurings I can tell that the album is hotttttt"
"Already in love with the track Sim Sima ft focalistic"
