Ekasi Our Story by 015 MusiQ and Van City MusiQ is a carefully curated body of work that captures the essence of township culture through amapiano storytelling. The album feels like a sonic journey, weaving between soulful, introspective cuts and hard-hitting dance anthems. Each track highlights a different dimension of ekasi life—from the joy of community celebrations and late-night grooves to the reflective moments of struggle and resilience.
015 MusiQ, Van City MusiQ and OHP Sage recently appeared on Tholukhuthi 2.0.
The instrumentation is rich and textured, balancing emotive piano chords, atmospheric pads, deep basslines, and intricate drum patterns that give every song its own personality while maintaining a cohesive flow. Vocals, where present, are raw and heartfelt, adding an extra layer of authenticity. What makes Ekasi Our Story stand out is its dual purpose—it’s both a soundtrack for the streets and a narrative that documents personal and communal experiences. The artists successfully craft an album that feels both deeply rooted in South African culture and expansive enough to appeal to international ears. In many ways, this project doesn’t just entertain; it educates and preserves the lived realities of ekasi life through music.
