Sjava Amakhehla: Sjava and his record label, 1020 Cartel, took to social media to promote the release of Sjava’s official music video for his certified platinum hit, ‘Amakhehla’, which features Venotile, UDUMAKAHLE, and Anzo. The visuals will be released this Friday, March 15th.
‘Amakhehla’ is on Sjava’s most recent studio album, ‘Isibuko’, which was released in January of last year.
When chatting about the soulful offering, Sjava detailed the significance and inspiration behind ‘Amakhehla’, revealed that the song’s chorus was recorded in 2019, and addressed an appropriate contributor for the song.
Sjava rose to prominence as one of South Africa’s most successful performers in the second half of the 2010s, blending hip-hop, R&B, and African pop. Singing and rapping nearly entirely in Zulu, he creates emotionally charged sounds about relationships and family matters, and his tracks seamlessly reveal how much contemporary R&B and trap share with ancient Zulu musical styles. After breaking through with his gold-selling debut album, 2016’s Isina Muva, he gained international recognition when he appeared on the Black Panther soundtrack in 2018.
Jabulani Hadebe was born and reared in the small South African town of Bergville. After migrating to Johannesburg, he first achieved fame as an actor, participating in various South African soap operas and producing music for television series ranging from dramas to dance programs.
