(The Post News)– Makhadzi Drops “Sesi Ka Rose” Featuring the mysterious Mzekezeke, the buzz surrounds her collaboration with the Kwaito legend.
Even though they recorded the track “Sunshine” together, she revealed that she never saw Mzeke’s face. Taking to Facebook, she shared her disbelief and excitement:
“I don’t think I’ll ever heal from this… My album drops today, and I did a song with Mzekezeke, yet I never got to see his face. Trust me, no one will ever see this face.” She added more detail about the recording process, explaining how he maintained his mystery. According to Makhadzi, they were urged to leave by bouncers when it was his turn to record. Nobody was permitted to see him.
Mzekezeke, who became a household name in the early 2000s with hits like “Guqangama Dolo” and “Izinyoka,” remains famous not just for his music but for his secret identity. Known for his trademark black mask and orange overalls, he has kept fans guessing for decades. Many speculate that DJ Sbu is the man behind the mask, though he has repeatedly denied the claim.
Beyond his, “Sesi Ka Rose” features an impressive lineup of collaborators, including Mr. Brown, Dr. Skaro, Bellafonte & Mizo Phyll, Dawie, and Blissbouy & Blackmyth. Makhadzi continues to showcase her range and deep connection with her fans not only through music but also through engagement on social media.
Makhadzi Explains Sesi Ka Rose
In the days leading up to the release, she invited her followers on Instagram to help choose the album cover. She also explained the inspiration behind the project, painting a vivid picture of the fictional character Sesi Ka Rose. Makhadzi said that Sesi Ka Rose is a dedicated woman who will take any job to support her family. But during the weekend, she’s out with her buddies, hitting the bars or the clubs—she does not even comprehend English music, but she will act as if she does.
“When slow jams play, she complains to the DJ; she just wants fast beats. She dances with everything in her, aiming to sweat, and never sits down at a groove. She’s the life of the party, always smiling, always spreading joy.” Through “Sesi Ka Rose,” she does not only deliver music but also storytelling, bringing a vibrant character to life that many South Africans can relate to. The album celebrates resilience, joy, and the spirit of everyday people who live fully, love deeply, and dance without shame.
With this release, she continues to cement her status as one of South Africa’s most beloved and dynamic performers.
