Baninzi is a spiritually driven, Afrocentric Amapiano gem brought to life by De Mthuda and the richly expressive vocals of Mthunzi. The word “Baninzi” loosely translates to “they are many”, possibly referencing the challenges or pressures one faces in life — or the many blessings one may receive. The lyrics blend poetic introspection with soulful delivery, rooted in traditional storytelling and emotional expression.
De Mthuda recently appeared on Sukuma featuring Murumba Pitch and Major League DJz.
De Mthuda’s signature deep basslines and rhythmic subtleties are on full display, while Mthunzi’s voice brings warmth and gravitas to the song. The track feels like a musical prayer — resonant, powerful, and healing. It’s Amapiano that reaches beyond the dancefloor, into the realm of cultural connection and spiritual upliftment.
