Dalom Kids, renowned for their timeless contributions to the South African music scene, bring their classic vocal harmonies to the forefront, delivering a nostalgic and emotionally charged performance that adds depth to the track. Their distinct style, marked by rich harmonies and storytelling, blends effortlessly with DJ Siya’s modern Amapiano production, creating a bridge between traditional South African sounds and contemporary Amapiano rhythms. This collaboration marks a powerful moment of honoring the past while embracing the future.
Temi Dimplez, known for her versatile vocal range, brings a refreshing energy to the track, complementing the soulful delivery of Dalom Kids.
