South Africa-based Zimbabwean musician and record producer Titose Alexander Ndebele better known as Saiintaugustine has released a new song titled “For Keeps” featuring Moch’a.
This is the Bulawayo-born rapper’s 3rd release of 2022, after releasing two successful records P.S.A and surpassing expectations and reaching just below 25 000 streams and over 2,500 monthly listeners for The Linkdin Freestyle which he released after PSA.
The latest single was recorded on the same day as The Linkdin Freestyle in April of 2022 produced by Mike Ludar.
Moch’a was a spontaneous add to the song, as she was initially hanging out with Saiintaugustine, and Saiint and Mike Ludar suggested she add a bridge to the music.
For keeps is a song that was actually a slow RnB and Trapsoul song in the beginning and ended up being an Afropop/Amapiano tune.
The song was based on Saiintaugustine’s actual relationship with his girlfriend, giving us a scope into his relationship, at the same time not forgetting the sexy dance element brought in by Mike Ludar and overall enjoying themselves in the music creation process, it was MIke Ludar’s idea to re-work the song from Rnb to Afropop.
Saiintaugustine’s breakthrough came with the release of the track Mariachi Flows on May 31, 2018, for his debut track Mariachi Flows.
He was nominated for “Best Diaspora Artist” and “Best International Newcomer” at the Pogues Zim Hip Hop Awards in 2019, followed by a profile on one of Zimbabwe’s most prominent media sites, News Day Zimbabwe.
