Zuma & Reece Explain Why They Chose JazziQ Over Josiah De Disciple. Amaroto duo, which consists of Zuma and Reece Madlisa, have been making waves in the amapiano scene, with every song they feature on becoming a hit. It was a question to many fans as to why they chose to stick with Mr JazziQ, and not Josiah following the split of JazziDisciples. On the latest MacG’s podcast, Zuma and Reece got real about everything including addressing the rumours.
“According to me, Josiah is too quiet man, he does not participate in many things like Tumelo, we trust in ‘Tumelo you are the hype man, you are the one who will pull us through.’ Tumelo was the hyper one in JazziDisciples. In Josiah being quiet, he is a good guy and he does good work, but I don’t think he participated in many things, so that is why we decided to let Tumelo to help us enter because there is progress there,” Reece Madlisa said.
Zuma also told his side of the story, “I was also going there, another thing that made us end where we were was that we we went to the studio, we went to JazziDisciple studios, ad when they parted ways, it happened that the studio was Mr JazziQ’s studio, so we chose the studio.”
Explaining the rumours that the famous track ‘Umsebenzi Wethu’ is a diss track, Zuma denied the allegations. “What happened on Umsebenzi Wethu was no to diss anyone, but it was an example to someone, it happens that Mabajabule Abantu by Busta 929 and Mr JazziQ was not mastered well, we trusted the person who was supposed to master that track, and we were highly anticipating it, and thought it is going to go far because it had hot tracks so when it was released it was not mastered well. It was very bad but people still likes it. So Busta told us that do you guys see that a person can ruin your hustle but people liked our hustle, even though you can ruin our hard work, our work will speak for itself.
“Then there was a verse by Mpura which we had no idea about and then Josiah was involved, Umsebenzi Wethu is Umsebenzi Wethu, we just spoke about someone ruining our work, not about Josiah,” Zuma added.
