South African Maskandi singer Siphosethu Ndlovu brings seven songs together on his latest album, Ubani ogolozayo?, with Stockfela making the project’s only guest appearance.
The album opens with “Noyana,” featuring Stockfela. It is the only collaboration on the project, as Ndlovu handles the remaining six songs himself. This gives the release a largely solo feel, with the singer carrying the attention throughout.
“Nhliziyo yomnikazi” follows the opening track, while “Bayeza omalume” and “Amasosha” occupy the next two positions. The album also includes “I love you,” a title that brings a different touch to the collection.
“Unompempe” comes in at number six before Ndlovu closes with the title track, “Ubani ogolozayo.” The closing song runs for 3 minutes and 15 seconds. It also gives the album its name.
The project stays within the Maskandi tradition, a genre known for its Zulu storytelling and guitar-led arrangements. Ndlovu has previously released music including Umhlatshelo, alongside singles such as “Ngembathe Shembe” and “Ekhaya babheke wena.”
Released independently, Ubani ogolozayo? contains seven tracks with a combined runtime of approximately 31 minutes.
