South African producer ESK Musiq brings back Caiiro De Vocalist and adds El Chapo to the mix on a new record titled “JICHAPO114.”
Both collaborators are familiar faces in ESK Musiq’s world. Caiiro De Vocalist showed up earlier this year on “PEPEE!!!” and “Hee Nyaka Nyaka,” while El Chapo has featured on cuts like “Unruly Behavior.” So “JICHAPO114” plays like a reunion of sorts, bringing two of his most reliable collaborators onto one track at the same time.
Production follows the same blueprint that’s defined ESK Musiq’s recent run, built around tight, rolling percussion layered with atmospheric electronic textures. The groove locks in early and holds steady throughout, giving the record that dancefloor pull his catalogue keeps chasing. Nothing here feels rushed on ESK MUSIQ – JICHAPO114, and the arrangement leaves plenty of space for the vocal work to sit comfortably in the mix.
ESK Musiq keeps a firm hand on the pacing, letting the rhythm breathe while still driving the record forward.
Caiiro De Vocalist and El Chapo then trade off across the track, each bringing their own texture to the vocal layers.
