“Upepe” is a soulful Afro-house track that brings together the rich, velvety vocals of Mthunzi and the polished production skills of Claudio Wade. The song is a deep and emotive journey, showcasing the fusion of African rhythms and modern house elements that have become hallmarks of Afro-house music. From the first note, “Upepe” captivates with its smooth, atmospheric vibe, setting a serene mood that is both introspective and uplifting.
Wanitwa Mos, Nkosazana Daughter and JL SA recently appeared on Nawe Dali featuring Mthunzi.
Mthunzi’s vocal performance is at the heart of this track, delivering poignant lyrics with raw emotion and grace. His voice floats effortlessly over the mellow beats and deep basslines provided by Claudio Wade, whose production blends traditional African instrumentation with electronic textures. The song’s melodic progression is subtle yet powerful, gradually building into a crescendo that resonates long after the music fades. It’s the kind of song that works equally well in intimate settings as it does in more expansive environments, carrying a sense of timelessness that will appeal to lovers of both deep house and soulful Afro-inspired music.
