Interview with Xiwang on his debut single "Imiyalo"

Loading player...
South African artist-producer Xiwang makes a bold entrance with his debut single “Imiyalo” (referring to the teachings of the elderly to the young), a captivating blend of home-grown sounds & infectious Afro-pop vibes featuring the vocals of the brilliant SAMA award-winning star Reign Afrika. Rooted in the rich musical traditions of South Africa, Xiwang further infuses the track with his unique flare of vibrant amapiano rhythms, giving it a fresh local flavor. The result is an irresistible groove that pulses with energy, celebrating both the modern and the traditional, as Xiwang establishes his presence in the ever-evolving Afro-pop scene.

I caught up with Xiwang to chat about this milestone in his career, as he steps out for global domination.
