For The 2Ks | Tsikitsiki | Mdu to Duncan

Same title. Different generation. But is that the whole story? 👀

Mdu Masilela gave us Tsikitsiki. Years later, Duncan brought us another Tsikitsiki.

In this episode of For The 2Ks, we explore what connects these two songs and how an idea can travel through South African music from one generation to another.

Sometimes the connection is hiding in plain sight. 🎵

For The 2Ks | Mapaputsi to KO | Izinja to Bebengazi

You might not hear the connection the first time. 👀🎵

Mapaputsi’s Izinja and Sir Trill’s Bebengazi come from different generations of South African music — but there is a reason we’re putting them in the same conversation.

In this episode of For The 2Ks, we listen beyond the obvious and explore the connection between the two songs.

You may hear Bebengazi differently after this one.

What does freedom mean when the song changes, but the word remains? 🎵

In this episode of For The 2Ks, we go from Letta Mbulu’s Not Yet Uhuru to Sun-El Musician feat. Azana’s Uhuru and explore how the idea of freedom is expressed across two different generations of South African music.

Two eras. Two perspectives. One word: Uhuru.

One song. Two generations. A story that travelled through South African music. 🎵

In this episode of For The 2Ks, we go from Jabu Khanyile’s Spoonky Poonky to Shekhinah feat. Young Stunna’s Spoonky.

We look at the connection between the two songs, the meaning behind the original, and how its ideas and sounds found their way into a new generation.

Because sometimes, the story behind a song is bigger than the song itself.

Some songs sound new. Their story isn’t. 🎵

In this episode of For The 2Ks, we go from Trompies’ Bengimngaka to KO feat. Kid X’s Caracara and explore the musical connection between two different generations of South African music.

What carried forward? What changed? And what might a younger generation have missed?
