VIDEO: DJ Maphorisa, Xduppy & Kabza De Small – Abantwana Bakho ft. Thatohatsi, Young Stunna & Nkosazana Daughter
The music video for “Abantwana Bakho” is a high-energy, spiritually infused, and visually charged celebration of youth, culture, and the unmistakable Amapiano movement shaped by the Scorpion Kings. It blends street authenticity with mystical undertones, creating an atmosphere that feels both raw and elevated — a visual prayer wrapped in rhythm.
DJ Maphorisa, DJ Tunez and WIZKID recently appeared on ABANGANI featuring Daliwonga and Madumane.
From the first frame, the video grounds itself in the streets and community spaces that birthed Amapiano. You see kids running, dancing, chanting, and owning the spotlight — a direct reflection of the song’s title, “Abantwana Bakho” (“Your Children”), celebrating the next generation and the spirit they carry. The environment is real, unfiltered, and charged with life: dusty roads, township corners, and open spaces where music is the heartbeat of daily existence.
DJ Maphorisa appears as the quiet conductor of energy — stylish, composed, and deeply rooted in the culture. His presence is less performance-driven and more symbolic: the guardian of sound, the figure whose influence shapes the vibe. Kabza De Small stands as the architect of spiritual groove, grounding scenes with his unmistakable calm, while Xduppy brings youthful flair and confidence, representing the bridge between legacy and the new wave.
Young Stunna brings the emotional intensity that has become his trademark. His scenes are powerful — eyes closed, hands raised, voice pouring from somewhere deeply spiritual. He is the vocalist who carries the song’s heart, and the camera captures him in a way that elevates his devotion to the craft. His fit, movements, and energy feel like an offering — music as worship, rhythm as prayer.
Nkosazana Daughter adds a mystical, almost otherworldly aura. Her vocals already carry divine texture, but the video amplifies it visually: soft lighting, slow movements, close-ups that reveal vulnerability and purpose. Her presence feels like the spiritual thread weaving the song together. When she sings, the atmosphere shifts — the kids become calmer, the lighting softens, and the video feels elevated into sacred territory.
Thatohatsi appears as the youthful heartbeat of the track — raw, emotional, expressive. The childlike purity in her delivery is mirrored through visuals that place her amidst other kids, highlighting innocence, freedom, and the emotional sincerity she brings to the song.
