Zulu Man With Some Power is back with his first single of the year titled ‘Blackout.’ The Durban born emcee who has been shuffling between Mzansi and the United States in preparation for his fourth full length studio album, bursts into 2023 with a song about the energy situation in South Africa for the past few months.
The song hints the situation of South African cities going through a blackout for now and Eskom, the primary energy company in the country had advised ‘loadshedding’ as a coping strategy for the energy crisis. In repsonse to that, the President, Cyril Ramaphosa called a state of emergency to handle the situation.
‘Blackout’ is an uptempo trap song with some braggadoccio bars on the second verse and clever metaphoric references tothe energy crisis in the first, click the link below to have a listen.
