Acclaimed producers Yumbs and Zwayetoven have joined forces to release their highly anticipated joint album, 'Soul Buddies'.
Featuring 21 expertly crafted tracks, the album promises to define the sound of the upcoming festive season. It showcases South Africa’s top-tier talent, including Mawhoo, Mthunzi, Ami Faku, Nasty C, Shekhinah, and the legendary DBN Gogo on the standout track Maqondisa, alongside Scotts Maphuma and Uncool MC.
Building on the smooth and refined sound of "Private School" Amapiano, Soul Buddies is a testament to the duo’s artistry and deep-rooted connection, dating back to their time at the National School of the Arts. The album title nods to the nostalgic TV show 'Soul Buddyz', while celebrating their shared passion for soul-infused music.
Together, Yumbs and Zwayetoven deliver a polished, soulful soundscape in Soul Buddies. This project celebrates the richness of South Africa’s music culture while setting the tone for the holiday season. With its vibrant collaborations and sophisticated grooves, Soul Buddies isn’t just an album; it’s an invitation to experience the future of Amapiano.
