Renowned South African music artist Mjolisi has once again captured the attention of the maskandi music scene with the release of his brand-new chart-topping track, “My Dululu.” Released on the 4th of September across all major streaming platforms, the song has a playtime of 4 minutes and 55 seconds and features the talented Mnqobi Yazo. Within just two days of its release, “My Dululu” has already made an impressive impact, amassing over 150,000 views on YouTube. By the 6th of September, the song had climbed the ranks to become the 4th most trending new South African music on the platform, further cementing Mjolisi’s status as a major player in the genre.
“My Dululu” tells the tale of a lover reflecting on their experiences, expressing both joy and pain through the rich lyrical tradition that maskandi music is known for. The collaboration with Mnqobi Yazo adds an extra layer of depth, as his vocal style tends to bring a soulful, heartfelt element to the songs he’s part of. Together, the two artists may be weaving a narrative that resonates deeply with the audience, touching on themes of love lost, emotional vulnerability, or a yearning for something just out of reach.
This track comes on the heels of Mjolisi’s earlier release this year, a 16-track maskandi album titled “Yimi Unompempe,” which showcased his versatility and skill as a maskandi artist. While “Yimi Unompempe” was well-received, “My Dululu” is quickly proving to be a breakout single, with its infectious rhythm and powerful lyrics resonating with fans across the country.
The song’s success can also be attributed to the collaboration with Mnqobi Yazo, a rising star in the South African music scene known for his soulful vocals and unique blend of genres. Together, Mjolisi and Mnqobi Yazo have crafted a song that not only honors the traditional maskandi sound but also infuses it with modern elements, creating a track that appeals to both long-time maskandi fans and new listeners alike.
