Listen to Mafikizolo's New Single 'Ngeke Balunge'

Beloved music duo Mafikizolo is back with another Afro-soul anthem that will tug at your heartstrings. After close to two decades of serenading South Africans and the broader continent, the talented Theo Kgosinkwe and Nhlanhla Nciza have given us timeless hits including "Emlanjeni", "Udakwa Njalo" and more recently "Khona" and "Love Potion". Their new single "Ngeke Balunge" is a beautiful love song that sees them returning to the sound that first catapulted them to mainstream success in the early 2000s.

Singing "Ngeke balunge, Ngeke bas'qede" the duo describe how those around them will never succeed in coming between their love for one another because they will always find their way back to each other—just as with Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.

The mid-tempo track, which was written and produced by the talented Mondli Ngcobo, features the use of a number of instrumentals which speak to the group's original sound and signature style. The single is the duo's second official release for this year following "Letheka" which was released earlier this year in June. At the beginning of the year, Mafikizolo featured on German artist Ralph GUM's "Uyakhala" and Rafiki's "Ke Nyaka Yole".
