Video: Da Mabusa – Ungigcine ft. Noex & Dj Kayd Boizen

The music video for “Ungigcine” by Da Mabusa, which features Noex & DJ Kayd Boizen, is a deeply emotional and spiritually resonant visual narrative that encapsulates the essence of gratitude, faith, and divine preservation. The Zulu title “Ungigcine” is translated as “You kept me” or “You preserved me,” establishing the core theme for a song that celebrates survival, love, and God’s sustaining presence during life’s challenges.

Da Mabusa recently appeared on Vuma with Anzo and SoulQue.

The video instantly transports viewers into a cinematic setting that exudes warmth, nostalgia, and a sense of reverence from the very start. The opening scenes frequently portray ordinary life – people strolling along country lanes, families coming together, or individuals becoming lost in thought – resulting in a video with a down-to-earth, identifiable atmosphere. The tone is both reverent and hopeful, conveying that everyday lives are infused with exceptional favour.

The instrumentation in Da Mabusa’s production is anchored by soulful, mid-tempo sounds. A combination of soft piano chords, gentle percussion, and atmospheric synths produces an introspective soundscape. The beat has a steady, comforting, and spiritual quality reminiscent of a heartbeat. The tempo, tone, and every other aspect of the song reflect the concept of being safeguarded and supported during periods of hardship.

Noex’s vocals are at the heart of the album’s emotional impact. Her voice conveys a delicate yet potent quality, much like a heartfelt prayer offered in sorrow. She conveys heartfelt thanks for being sustained through tempests, heartbreaks, and periods of uncertainty. The camera captures her in moments of solitude, sometimes singing outside or near symbolic elements such as water or light. Each scene deepens the song’s intimacy, resembling a conversation with the divine.

DJ Kayd Boizen brings an understated yet influential energy to the track, adding a layer of rhythmic complexity. His presence brings a modern touch to a soulful base, combining traditional Afro-soul feeling with the contemporary feel of house music.
