Killorbeezbeatz links up with Sombhixi on Bayang Thanda, a track that pulls straight from that warm corner of South African music. “Thanda” means love in isiZulu, and “bayang thanda” carries the feeling of being loved or asking who truly loves you  there’s something both soft and searching about that idea.

Sombhixi’s presence on the track gives it a familiar local touch, and the production from Killorbeezbeatz holds things together without stepping on the vocals. It has that unhurried pace that lets the emotion breathe, which is exactly what a song like this needs.

If you enjoy South African sounds that feel close to home, Bayang Thanda is one to add to your rotation. It’s on ssvid now.
