Kuphelele by Joezi, KingDonna, Toshi

"Kuphelele" is a stirring Afro house collaboration from Joezi and Kingdonna, uplifted by the unmistakable voice of Toshi. Rooted in deep emotion and spiritual undercurrents, the track unfolds through layered percussion, warm synths, and a slow-building intensity that speaks to both body and spirit. Toshi's vocals - rich, haunting, and laced with longing - carry the narrative with lyrical depth and raw, soul-baring vulnerability. As the rhythm swells, the track remains anchored in organic textures, weaving ancestral echoes into modern dancefloor energy. Every element in Kuphelele feels purposeful, from the meditative chants and electronic undulations to the intricate drumwork and intuitive flow. It's a track that doesn't just move through you, it stays rooted.

One of THE main protagonists since day one, there is nobody else around, laying foundations on this level and pushing boundaries like MoBlack Records and its founder Mimmo Falcone (MoBlack). The Italian who lived in Ghana for ten years keeps surprising the RISE team as much as the scene with those cutting edge releases and a repertoire that shouts "classic" every second minute. by RISE -
