While awaiting trial in juvenile detention, he often sang with his fellow inmates, and when he went back to high school after his release, he became a founding member of the a cappella group The Soil. He left The Soil soon after releasing his 2010 solo debut, This N That Without Tempo. The EP Eb’suku followed in 2014. While he jumped into amapiano a few years ago, Samthing Soweto is ready to make a come back.
Known for his acapella crooning, Samthing Soweto had previously collaborated with award-winning South Africa’s Mzanzi Youth Choir on “The Danko! Medley”. The collaboration is a treat for fans who are nostalgic for Samthing Soweto’s beginnings with acapella band The Soil. The smooth vocal arrangement and harmonising on “The Danko! Medley” ends the EP on a perfect pitch. The last track is essentially a rendition of 2019 Isphithiphithi lead single “Akulaleki” featuring Shasha, DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small.
