“uValo” is a deeply emotive fusion of Afro-house and Amapiano, encapsulating the complex interplay between fear and yearning in romantic relationships. Babalwa M conveys a sense of vulnerability and hesitation through her airy, soulful vocals, with “uValo” (isiZulu for “fear”) being a key theme, alongside Thukuthela’s emotive harmonies that add depth.

Thukuthela, Jazzworx, and Sykes recently appeared on uMA weNGANE alongside Major League DJz.

The production, directed by Jazzworx, is refined and engaging—combining rich pads, delicate keys, and a consistent beat. Dlala Thukzin infuses the track with his distinctive percussive style and driving bassline, resulting in a captivating rhythm that both profoundly introspective and perfectly suited for the dance floor. The music achieves a flawless equilibrium of emotional depth and melodic flow, conveying a narrative of complicated love.
