MZINGELI MONTANA has released his anticipated contribution to South African hip hop alongside producers SK SUPREME and VXXX$. The EP, 2.$IDEZ (Two Sides To Every Story) is based on the concept of duality and the connectivity between two parallel worlds that meet somewhere in the middle. With this being the second instalment – the songs PROPHET & KAKUJA, speak about the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wars we face everyday.
The context of the two songs are described below;
PROPHET – MZINGELI MONTANA has been navigating his way through his spiritual calling and relays how much the gift has helped him navigate through life, and as a man coming of age.
KAKUJA – The term “KAKUJA” is from Tokyo Ghoul and defines a Ghoul that has evolved through repeated cannibalism – giving them an unstoppable edge against others if they’re kind. MZINGELI MONTANA is referring to his ancestors (Good & Bad – which everyone has) and how their life experiences and feats have affected his own life. Their joys and hardships have even helped him access insight into remaining progressive and protected in a world full of superficial worth and distractions. It is not always a “Dog Eat Dog World” amongst the strong and powerful ~ but that doesn’t mean “war” is inevitable.
