Han-C, Priscilla K, and Flex The Ninja unveil ‘The Journey’ EP in collaboration with St. Louis Lager’s #HypeTheHomegrown Campaign
There’s a remarkable alchemy that unfolds when top talents converge for a project designed to celebrate excellence, especially when a brand recognizes and supports the industry’s contributions. ‘The Journey’ EP, a six-track masterpiece, is a testament to this synergy. Produced by Flex The Ninja, with Han-C and Priscilla K lending their prowess to the writing and vocals, the EP begins with Han-C’s uniquely Botswana narrative on ‘Re Ya Pele.’ Here, he candidly reflects on his journey, grappling with personal growth while pleading for patience, creating a compelling dialogue. Priscilla seamlessly enters the fray, echoing Han-C’s sentiments, infusing the track with soulful depth against Flex’s soft keys, resulting in an electrifying collaboration.
‘Oa nkgarakgatsha,’ picks up the pace with an Afrobeat vibe, serving as a continuation of the narrative introduced in the opener. Han-C navigates through various challenges while Priscilla remains distant, seemingly unfazed by the situation. The track exudes a lively energy, capturing the essence of fun and lived experiences in a captivating manner.
In ‘On My Life,’ Priscilla explores themes of love, while also addressing the pain caused by her partner. Han-C’s response is introspective, shifting the focus away from blame. He encourages her to reflect on her own role in their relationship or ‘situationship’.
“Mma Nna” is a standout track where Han-C delves into addressing rumors about his long-standing partner, pledging her the world, and earnestly inviting her to become his beloved. The song beautifully utilizes Setswana, evoking emotion and charm, and is poised to expand the project’s reach to new audiences. This, alongside the captivating musical journey shared by these artists, promises an engaging experience for listeners.
The project, from production to recording, was completed in just one week, with Flex delivering stellar work in mixing and mastering. The result is truly impressive, highlighting Flex’s talent and dedication to the project. Now available for streaming, “The Journey” EP, performed by Han-C & Priscilla K and written by Asmaah Priscilla Khan, Hanceford Phemo Magapatona, and Pearson Laurence Banda, is a testament to local creativity. We’re excited to promote and support this homegrown talent through #HypeTheHomegrown
With his new single “Garri,” Botswana’s own WNDRSZN delivers a moving blend of nostalgia, rhythm, and reflection. The track feels like a time capsule — echoing the golden sounds of Africa’s past while remaining grounded in the grit of modern life.
Garri paints the picture of long days, crowded taxi rides, and quiet moments of exhaustion — when silence speaks louder than words. WNDRSZN captures the ache and beauty of that struggle with haunting tenderness, reminding us of the resilience that lives in ordinary people.
Inspired by African classics like Ismaël Lô’s Tajabone and Oliver Mtukudzi’s Neria, Garri draws from deep emotional wells of hope and survival. It’s not just a song; it’s a feeling — a lament, a memory, and a prayer for better days.
With his signature fusion of AfroSoul and Kalahari Pop, WNDRSZN once again reimagines what African music can sound like — rooted in heritage but speaking to now.
Garri is more than music. It’s a mirror to our everyday hustle — and a gentle call to keep going.
Priscilla K returns with a soulful new single titled “Show Me”, a heartfelt Afrobeat-meets-Afrotech track that blends rhythm and emotion effortlessly. In this song, she opens up about the need to be seen, to be affirmed, and to be reminded of her worth — especially in moments of doubt.
With lyrics like “Show me a sign I’m wanted, I’m worthy,” Priscilla delivers a message that’s both intimate and universal. It’s a plea for reassurance, but also an anthem of resilience — a reminder that even when we fall, we can rise again and fight.
Sonically, Show Me shimmers with layered percussion and subtle electronic textures, carried by her powerful, emotive vocals. It’s a record that feels alive — grounded in vulnerability, but glowing with hope.
Show Me isn’t just a song — it’s a moment of honesty from an artist unafraid to feel, fall, and rise again.
It’s been a minute since we last heard from Clever Blanco, but the Faded Gang member is back with a fresh project titled Lit No More. The tape opens with Cops & Robbers, a smooth but gritty groove that instantly pulls you in. Blanco shows his range across the project — from the introspective Heart Ain’t Gold to the hard-hitting Rage Manual.
The project also features appearances from Ando Slime, Angvlo, and Maxx Tokyo, adding different textures to Blanco’s production and flow. As a producer, musician, writer, and rapper, Clever Blanco sounds refreshed and focused. Lit No More is a solid reminder of his creative depth — and proof that good music never really leaves, it just waits for the right moment to return.
