“Nembeza” — meaning “Conscience” in isiZulu — is a deeply emotive Afro-pop/Afrosoul collaboration between rising star Lwah Ndlunkulu and celebrated vocalist Mawhoo. The song dives into the emotional weight of decisions, regrets, and the inner voice that guides or haunts us — our nembeza (conscience).
Riky Rick recently appeared on Owami featuring Baby S.O.N, Lwah Ndlunkulu and Lawd Weezy.
Lwah Ndlunkulu delivers a powerful, heartfelt performance, marked by her raw vocal texture and storytelling prowess. Her lyrics explore themes of accountability, emotional conflict, and vulnerability, while Mawhoo’s signature vocal tone adds a soft, haunting contrast that elevates the emotional stakes of the track.
Musically, the production blends Afro-soul instrumentation with modern Zulu ballad sensibilities — subtle drums, rich harmonies, and minimal electronic elements, allowing the vocals to lead with authenticity and resonance.
