“Lawuleka”, which means “Be Governed” or “Calm Yourself” in isiZulu, is a spiritually rooted Amapiano piece by legends Kabza De Small and Mdu aka TRP, featuring a soul-stirring performance by Zawadi Yamungu. The track is reflective and empowering, fusing ancestral themes, traditional African spirituality, and deep house influences.
Kabza De Small recently appeared on Uma Kujabule Wena featuring Zee Nxumalo and Nobuhle.
Zawadi’s vocals are commanding yet gentle — more like a chant or prayer — urging surrender to inner peace or divine order. The production is layered with sweeping pads, soft drums, ethereal keys, and the signature log drum roll, creating a space that feels both sacred and immersive.
Lawuleka is not just a song — it’s a moment of grounding, perfect for spiritual sets, cultural showcases, and emotionally charged mixes. It’s Amapiano at its most elevated and conscious, blending sound, intention, and ancestral energy.
