South African Amapiano singer-songwriter Ricky Lenyora reunites with Mluusician, Mark Khoza, DJ Maphorisa, and Zuma on a reworked new single titled “Sthombe Esihle Whistle (Revisit),” lifted from his LENYORA SZN album.
The original “Sthombe Esihle” already had a life of its own. It went through a remix with DJ Maphorisa, Focalistic, Ch’cco, and Big Baller CEO in 2025, and the whistle version further cemented how much love the song was pulling. So coming back with a Revisit on the LENYORA SZN album in 2026 is not just a creative decision – it is Ricky Lenyora knowing exactly which record deserved another moment.
What makes this one interesting is how the production team behind it reads. Lebogang Matabane, France Bila, and Themba Sekowe – which is DJ Maphorisa’s real name -handled production duties. So the Scorpion Kings energy runs deep through this record even before the vocals start.
Mluusician, Mark Khoza, and Zuma are all names that have become familiar faces on Ricky Lenyora’s records, and that comfort shows. Nobody is here to perform – they are here to contribute. The record flows the way a song does when everyone involved actually understands each other.
LENYORA SZN is shaping up to be one of the more stacked Amapiano projects of 2026. If “Sthombe Esihle Whistle (Revisit)” is the kind of energy running through the album, the full project is worth your time.
