The South African “Umsebenzi Wethu” hitmaker returns for the third edition of his Undisputed projects, presenting the visuals of the viral dance challenge.
In the amapiano landscape, Busta 929 is more than well identified. In the past two years, the South African producer’s career has taken off spectacularly with hits like “Paradise, “Mmapula” and “Umsebenzi Wethu”, with vocalist Mpura. The latter’s tragic passing alongside producer Killer Kau, Khanya “The Voice” Hadebe, DJ Thando Tot and TD in August 2021 had inspired Busta to recently release a tribute to his collaborator and friend in the form of a five-track EP named Umsebenzi Wethu, Vol. 2, containing “Ngixolele” with Boohle, one of the biggest tracks of the past months.
Undisputed Vol. 3 will be the producer’s first project of 2022, and fifth project on streaming platforms. Ahead of its release, Busta has released short extracts of the different tracks on his social media and Youtube channel. The tracklist seems to include tracks like “Idlozi”, “Uthando” and “Enkwarani”, and the project will feature mostly upcoming vocalists such as Lolo SA, Xavi Yentin, Almighty and more.
In addition to those short extracts, Busta has also dropped the video for “Gqoz Gqoz” featuring Mafidzodzo, taken from Undisputed, Vol. 2. The track was already quite popular online before the release of the visuals, and had led to many dance challenges on social media. The video features Mafidzodzo in a typical “rags to riches” scenario, from washing car windows in the township to getting a haircut at the famous “Legendary Barber” and partying in an uptown villa.
Undisputed, Vol. 3 by Busta 929, out on February 25.
