Bab’Motha features some of the most recognisable names in amapiano, including Young Stunna, Nkosazana Daughter, Nobuhle, Sykes, DJ Maphorisa, Dlala Thukzin, Da Muziqal Chef, Kelvin Momo, Mdu aka TRP, Tracy and Thatohatsi, to name a few.
Leading the rollout was Kabza Chant 2.0, an anthemic track featuring Nobuhle, Nkosazana Daughter and Sykes that quickly became a fan favourite thanks to its rich production and emotionally resonant vocals. Another standout, Ngyozama, brings together Young Stunna, Nkosazana Daughter, Sykes, Tracy and Thatohatsi in a collaboration that underscores the genre’s emotional and sonic depth.
Speaking to the inspiration behind the album, Kabza said: “This album is about celebrating where amapiano has come from and where we are going. I worked with people who inspire me and who represent the sound of now. Bab’Motha is my way of giving back to the culture and to the fans who keep pushing this movement forward.”
The title Bab’Motha is a clear nod to Kabza’s leadership role in the genre, reflecting his commitment to elevating not just his own sound but that of the entire amapiano movement through consistent collaboration and innovation.
With months of build-up and speculation, Bab’Motha is easily one of the most eagerly awaited South African music releases of the year. And with his unmatched ability to fuse street-level authenticity with international appeal, Kabza De Small has delivered yet another masterpiece.
