Saliwa Umtshelekwano: Renowned South African music artist Saliwa has released a new Maskandi track titled “Umtshelekwano,” the second song on his 14-track album Emabhukwini Amafa, which was launched on the 14th of September, 2024. The song dives into themes of negotiation and communication, particularly around the cultural concept of umtshelekwano, which can refer to agreements or understanding between individuals. Saliwa’s rich storytelling ability brings this traditional concept to life, as he uses the track to explore how agreements, whether in relationships or broader social contexts, shape personal experiences and interactions.
In “Umtshelekwano,” Saliwa reflects on the importance of trust and mutual respect in any negotiation, highlighting how these principles guide relationships within families and communities. The song’s lyrics convey a deep sense of responsibility and the need for clear communication in resolving conflicts and finding common ground. Through his evocative lyrics and the soulful Maskandi rhythm, Saliwa captures the emotional complexities involved in reaching agreements, whether in romantic relationships, friendships, or community affairs.

At its core, “Umtshelekwano” is about fostering harmony through understanding and compromise. Saliwa’s use of traditional Maskandi elements in both sound and message gives the track cultural depth, making it a meaningful reflection on the values of communication and trust. By weaving these themes into the song, Saliwa invites listeners to consider how their own negotiations, both big and small, impact the quality of their relationships and their community.
