A high-energy art form called “Thank You Malumz” is a fusion of gqom and Amapiano that honours the figure known as “malumz” among the community, who are referred to as uncles or figures of respect. The track, led by Mgilane, Bhuwa G, and Rockboy, features a robust lineup comprising Captain, Que DJ, We Dem Boyz, and Campmasters, thereby creating a multi-layered township anthem.

We Dem Boyz have recently appeared on Vutha Dubane, which features Dankie Boi, Eemoh and Okmalumkoolkat.

The lyrics convey a sense of gratitude and respect, yet the delivery is lighthearted, combining chant-like vocals, streetwise ad-libs, and powerful percussion. The track’s beat structure is more robust than usual piano beats, thanks to Campmasters’ gqom style, which imparts a raw Durban sound, and Que DJ’s involvement, which enhances the transitions to deliver a powerful dancefloor experience.

The song is both a tribute and a celebration, blending respect for elders and community leaders with the energetic atmosphere of South African nightlife. Ideal for late-night performances when the audience is prepared to sing along in unison.
