“The Tears of a Mother-in-Law,” which translates to “Dikeledi Tsa Mamazala” from Setswana and Sepedi, is a deeply emotive and culturally rooted collaboration between OHP Sage, 015 MusiQ, and Van City MusiQ. The track combines Afro house rhythms with soulful Amapiano elements, resulting in a sound that is both contemporary and rooted in tradition.

Major_Keys and OHP Sage have recently been featured on CAROLINA alongside TitoM and Yuppe.

The song is built on a warm percussion foundation, expressive chord progressions, and poignant vocal narratives that focus on family dynamics, emotional sacrifice, and respect within relationships, typically told from the perspective of elders. The instrumentation is understated yet complex, enabling the emotional significance of the song’s theme to be the focal point.

Suitable for listeners who value meaningful, narrative-driven African music, “Dikeledi Tsa Mamazala” is a reflection on love, pain, and tradition, conveyed through strong rhythms and heartfelt storytelling.
