Listen to King Monada’s New Song ‘One Day’

South African hitmaker King Monada is not resting this year. The artist and producer has been releasing singles consistently and collaborating with other artists.

His recent single is titled "One Day," and speaks of longing for the day when one's life is what they hope it will be.


King Monada is essentially a house artist known for his summer anthems such as "Ska Bhora Moreki" and "Malwedhe," but "New Day" doesn't intend to make you dance. The song focuses on vocals more than it does on instrumentation. The artist croons with the aid of autotune over a guitar riff sitting on 808s drums.

The song features Leon Lee, who's known for his Sepedi vocals. He sings backing vocals and is also given a verse.
