who's the 1st guy singing? killed it
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 1 April 2020 20:32 (four years ago) link
That would be NaakMusiQ.
Itâs an unfortunate choice of words though (not that you would have known), as the female singer on this, Nichume, committed suicide a year ago. I had heard about it, but didnât realize it was her on this track until just now.
(to make matters worse, Mobi Dixonâs treatment of her -he was her label boss- apparently was a factor in this. damn, I wish I hadnât known)

so there's a "Mzansi House" playlist on Apple Music that seems to be all this sort of stuff. Is that just their name for the playlist or is that a recognized genre name?
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 1 April 2020 21:32 (four years ago) link
"Mzansi" stands for South Africa.
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Wednesday, 1 April 2020 21:35 (four years ago) link
to quote a Wikipedia quote:
"Mzansi is another black urban vernacular term popular with the youth and standing for South Africa."
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Wednesday, 1 April 2020 21:40 (four years ago) link
thanks again! (I did do a brief google and only saw that it was an obsolete term for someone who yells)
