Kabza De Small – Kings Will Rise EP Zip Download
The powerhouse duo of South African Amapiano, Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa, popularly known as the Scorpion Kings, surprised fans in August 2025 with the release of their brand-new project, the Kings Will Rise EP.
Known for shaping and elevating the Amapiano sound to global stages, the two artists once again delivered a polished body of work that celebrates collaboration, creativity, and South Africa’s vibrant music culture.
Unlike their heavily promoted previous projects, Kings Will Rise arrived without prior announcements, instantly creating buzz within the Amapiano scene. The EP was released under Piano Hub (Pty) Ltd, with exclusive distribution by Sony Music Entertainment Africa. This unexpected release strategy generated excitement and reaffirmed the duo’s dominance in the genre—they no longer need lengthy build-ups; their names alone are enough to draw attention.
Kings Will Rise continues the Scorpion Kings’ signature style—rich log drums, soulful chords, hypnotic piano riffs, and vocal-driven tracks. Songs like Dakwa Njalo and iLanga deliver smooth, melodic storytelling, while Biri Marung (Remix) introduces cross-continental flavor, blending Amapiano with Afrobeats influences.
The EP feels both celebratory and authoritative, living up to its regal title. Each track is layered with detail, showing why Kabza and Maphorisa remain the gold standard in Amapiano production.
