Maglera Doe Boy Drops “God Is Power” on His Birthday – A Visual Tribute to Kanana
On Sunday, 4 August 2025, Maglera Doe Boy turned a year older and celebrated the occasion by giving his fans something powerful. Taking to Instagram, he shared a moving post reflecting on his roots and purpose:
“And on this day my ancestors said let there be a King.
Tau.
Let his name be Tokelo.
Let him speak for his people.”
As a gift to his supporters, Maglera released the official music video for “God Is Power” a collaboration between Maglera Doe Boy & ONDELIVE, featuring Burningforestboy. Produced by @fiji_mageba, the track is raw, spiritual, and speaks directly to legacy and resilience.
The music video marks Maglera’s first visual release in almost a year and was shot in the city of Matlosana and the township of Kanana, where he grew up. The visual doesn’t just tell a story, it brings the viewer into his world, with real locations and real people. Shoutout to Mayor Fikile Mahlope for opening the doors of the city council and even his office for the shoot.
The video is more than a production, it’s a cultural statement. Co-directed by @moralepablophala_ and Maglera himself, and produced under @cloutcassette, the team behind God Is Power brought the vision to life with purpose and soul.

Lucasraps Steps Into “Year Of Greatness” Mode
Lucasraps just called his shot.
“Y.O.G” (Year of Greatness) lands like a statement, not just a release. Dropped at midnight on 20 March, the project carries the same energy he’s been teasing all month — focused, hungry, and intentional.
“eGoli” set the tone early, blending melody with real-life reflection, and the rest of the tape follows through. Ten tracks, no filler. Just Lucasraps moving between introspection and flex, without losing himself in the process.
From Location Hurting 3 to now, the growth is clear. The conversations about whether he’s underrated? They only add pressure — and he sounds ready for it.
“Y.O.G” feels like a level-up moment. Not loud, not forced. Just a young artist stepping into his space and owning it.

K.O Celebrates 20 Years In Music With Reflective New Single “20 Summers”
K.O is in his reflective bag.
“20 Summers” isn’t just another drop, it’s a timestamp. Released on 20 March 2026, exactly 20 years since he stepped into the game, the joint finds him looking back without sounding stuck.
The production leans into African textures layered over clean hip-hop drums, while K.O keeps it honest. No gimmicks, no chasing trends , just perspective. He talks longevity, discipline, and what it really takes to stay relevant when the game keeps moving.
From Teargas days to Skhanda World, this is a full-circle moment. And instead of celebrating loudly, he chooses to speak calmly, like someone who knows exactly what they’ve built.
“20 Summers” feels less like a victory lap and more like a reminder: K.O is still here, still sharp, and still moving with intention.

Lewi Ercoll & Ukhona Honor A Legend With “TOO LATE”
Lewi Ercoll and Ukhona have released the official music video for “TOO LATE,” a standout from their collaborative project BLOOD BEHIND THE VEIL.
The visual draws clear inspiration from Brenda Fassie’s iconic “Too Late for Mama,” reimagining its emotional depth through a modern lens.
Rather than a remake, the video captures similar themes of regret and consequence, using intimate storytelling and symbolic visuals to connect past and present.
With this release, the duo delivers a thoughtful tribute while continuing to shape their own voice in South African music.
