ChopLife SoundSystem, Mr Eazi unload “Indaba” Nkosazana Daughter

ChopLife SoundSystem, Mr Eazi unveil “Indaba” with Nkosazana Daughter off the project – Chop Life, Vol. 1: Mzansi Chronicles. Listen, stream, read the lyrics, buy the track co-produced by Milan Rendall, DJ Tarico.

Choplife Vol. 1: Mzansi Chronicles is also a formal introduction to Choplife Soundsystem, which takes its name from West African pidgin slang meaning “enjoy life.” Choplife Soundsystem is focused on music that sparks feelings of happiness, wellness and enjoyment — and promotes positive, carefree vibes through music and events. “This is not just a side project, this is a serious project,” Mr Eazi says.

Production on Chop Life, Vol. 1: Mzansi Chronicles is handled largely by Mozambique’s DJ Tárico (known for “Yaba Buluku,” his 2021 smash featuring Burna Boy) with additional contributions from South African beatmakers Mellow & Sleazy, Ghetto Boy, Milan Rendall, LuuDaDeejay, Soul Jam and Mathondos, as well as Type A from Nigeria.

While Choplife, Vol. 1 focuses on amapiano, future instalments of the mixtape series will venture across the map of African club and party music. “I like the idea of going to a new place for 30 days and making a project,” Mr Eazi says.

Listeners can connect with Mr Eazi and Choplife Soundsystem this summer on its inaugural ChopLife pop-up tour this summer in Barcelona (July 7), Amsterdam (July 8), London (July 14) and Paris (July 16), followed by appearances at Afrobeats Festival in Berlin (Aug. 5), and Stockholm’s Kulturfestival in Sweden (Aug. 18).

Lyrics

Impikiswano iqalile
Nenqondo isinendaba
Owesithathu ungenaphi
Besibabili kulendaba

Impikiswano iqalile
Nenqondo isinendaba
Owesithathu ungenaphi
Besibabili kulendaba ah ah

Ngylahleka
Ngyadideka
Dali ubuya ninina
Uyababona laba bantu aaaa bathokoza ngathi
Uyababona laba bantu aaaa bathokoza ngathi
Ngikulindile emlanjeni sthandwa buya phela nawe

Lovey buya phela nawe
Dali buya phela nawe
Lovey buya phela nawe
Dali buya phela nawe
Lovey buya phela nawe
Dali buya phela nawe
Lovey buya phela nawe
Dali buya phela nawe
Lovey buya phela nawe ah ah

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
Yo yo yo DJ Tárico
Yo DJ Tárico I’m lit

Yo Victor pour me one more
One more glass of Glen
Run that ting again
Run it

Impikiswano iqalile
Nenqondo isinendaba
Owesithathu ungenaphi
Besibabili kulendaba

Impikiswano iqalile
Nenqondo isinendaba
Owesithathu ungenaphi
Besibabili kulendaba

Ngylahleka
Ngyadideka
Dali ubuya ninina
Uyababona laba bantu aaaa bathokoza ngathi
Uyababona laba bantu aaaa bathokoza ngathi
Ngikulindile emlanjeni sthandwa buya phela nawe

Lovey buya phela nawe
Dali buya phela nawe
Lovey buya phela nawe
Dali buya phela nawe
Lovey buya phela nawe
Dali buya phela nawe
Lovey buya phela nawe
