The multi-award winning DJ has created an upbeat, classical house single with "Ebabayo". The song is hypnotic and Nokwazi's vocals drive the rhythmic beat which is treated with drums and distinctive piano keys.

"Ebabayo" has reportedly been described by Prince Kaybee's record label as a "high-octane" track that's sure to strike out some new dances.

Prince Kaybee is known for his master collaborations that produce hits and The 4th Republic is no different.

Lady Zamar, Ami Faku, King Monada, Black Motion, Shimza, Masuda, Kaylow, and LeboTheGreat are just a few of the artists music fans can look forward to hearing on the album.

The lead single "Uwrongo", which dropped early in 2020, reportedly featured on former US President Barack Obama's "Favourite Songs Of 2020" and Time Magazine's coveted "10 Best Songs of 2020" list. The hit single "Uwrongo" was Prince Kaybee's dream collaboration with house heavyweights Shimza and Black Motion as well as Xhosa songstress Ami Faku.

"Ebabayo" is sure to keep Prince Kaybee's trail blazing. The 4th Republic will officially be released on the 5th of March.
