South African Kwaito Icon Kabelo Mabalane Returns with a New Solo Project in Over a Decade
After more than a decade devoted to full-time ministry, active lifestyle advocacy & enablement, business, family, and social contribution, South African music icon, now Pastor Kabelo Mabalane, makes a powerful solo artist return to music scene.
Mabalane is made a return with a new EP titled “Everybody Needs Somebody,” as his lead single from his forthcoming album, dropping on Thursday, across all major digital platforms.
Known affectionately as Bouga Luv or Bouga2shoes, a founding member of the legendary trio TKZee — and today as a pastor at Rhema Church — Mabalane steps into a defining new chapter with a genre he calls “Street Psalms.”
A sound construction bringing faith currently not expressed in Street Culture.
Born at the intersection of pulpits, townships, boardrooms, and prayer rooms, it is a sound that brings the full breadth of his lived experience into one compelling musical language for a new era.
