“Bahlulekile” — meaning “They have failed” in isiZulu — is a powerful and emotionally resonant Afro-soul/Amapiano fusion by Sundile and Mthunzi, featuring a stirring guest appearance by Sly. The track tells a story of resilience, triumph over adversity, and spiritual vindication, delivered through evocative vocals and deep, soulful instrumentation.
Baby Momo, Mthunzi and MaWhoo recently appeared on Bayabaleka featuring Gl_Ceejay, Ney The Bae and Baby S.O.N.
Mthunzi brings his signature vocal prowess—rich, melodic, and full of conviction—singing from a place of inner strength and experience. His delivery, layered with harmonies and emotional nuance, is matched by Sundile’s warm and textured production, which fuses Amapiano percussion, Afro-soul chord progressions, and subtle acoustic elements. Sly adds depth with complementary vocals or instrumentation (depending on the version), rounding out a song that feels both personal and universal.
