DJY MA’TEN & MR JAZZIQ RETURN WITH A FESTIVE SINGLE ‘ZENZILE’

Sowetan DJ & producer DJY Ma’Ten returns with a new single titled ‘Zenzile’. On this Amapiano single DJY Ma’Ten teams up with his label boss Mr JazziQ. Capturing the essence of a warm summer’s day ‘Zenzile’ also features talents such as Leerosoul, Thatohatsi and fellow stablemate Jandas.

The simple yet captivating instrumental was designed to have everyone on the song showcase their respective talents and production style, allowing Thatohatsi to deliver vocals that perfectly complement the song’s mellow and soothing rhythm. “I met Thatohatsi through Leerosoul, when we made Zenzile we were supposed to have a studio session where it was going to be myself, Mr JazziQ, Jandas and Leerosoul. When Leerosoul came to the session, he came with Thato and that’s where the opportunity to work with her came up. She has been someone I’ve been wanting to work with for a long time. She is a compelling upcoming vocalist, and I couldn’t let the opportunity pass me by.” DJY Ma’Ten reflects on the creation of ‘Zenzile’

Born and raised in Meadowlands, Soweto, DJY Ma’Ten (real name Philani Dladla) always loved music from his youth. He followed the amapiano movement from when it was still underground, and he has loved it since. He would hang out with his friends that made music and he finally gained the courage to officially start making music in 2020. He met Mr JazziQ through his friend, Katlego, who convinced Mr JazziQ to have a studio session with Ma’Ten. After three sessions he knew that this is the label and family he wants to join.
