Wayedakwa is a fresh release by Qhabula featuring Njabulo Langa, dropped just recently in May 2026.

The track is rooted in the Maskandi tradition, a popular Zulu folk music genre often characterized by its intricate acoustic guitar picking, rhythmic concertina melodies, and rapid-fire spoken word sections (izihlabo).

The title “Wayedakwa” is in  isiZulu.” In the context of Maskandi storytelling, songs like this often lean into social commentary or personal narratives, sometimes using the theme of intoxication to tell a story about life’s challenges, social behavior, or even humorous mishaps within a community.
