South African songstress Paige and producer Msongi are using their voices and artistry to confront one of the country’s most pressing social issues — gender-based violence (GBV). Their new emotionally charged single, ‘Mbuyisele Ekhaya’, is a stirring call to action that seeks to raise awareness and offer hope to victims of abuse.
Released with the intention of speaking directly to the hearts of South Africans, the track shines a glaring spotlight on the plight of women who suffer in silence every day. In a country where GBV statistics remain disturbingly high, this collaboration serves as a poignant reminder of the power of music to advocate for change.
Paige, known for her emotionally resonant vocals, delivers a performance filled with raw vulnerability, pleading for the return of those who have been lost or broken by violence. The title itself, “Mbuyisele Ekhaya,” which translates to “Bring Her Back Home,” echoes the painful stories of many women who leave abusive relationships too late — or never return at all.
Produced by Msongi, the song pairs haunting traditional chants with a rich, soulful piano-led rhythm, creating a spiritual and deeply moving experience. The production complements Paige’s heartfelt delivery, making the track not only a musical journey but also a message of healing and empowerment.
The lyrics are direct and intentionally sobering, steering away from subtle metaphors to speak clearly and boldly about the importance of leaving abusive environments. Msongi’s production highlights the urgency of the song’s message, with a soundscape that mirrors the emotional weight of its subject matter.
Paige and Msongi hope to spark conversations and encourage victims to seek safety, support, and freedom. The song also serves as a call to society — to listen, to act, and to protect the vulnerable.
In a time when GBV continues to ravage communities, ‘Mbuyisele Ekhaya’ is more than just music — it’s a protest, a prayer, and a plea.
This collaboration proves that when music meets purpose, it can become a powerful tool for change. Stream ‘Mbuyisele Ekhaya’ now and help amplify its vital message.
