The Avenue is the latest vibrant, live-show-style EP from Southside Avenue, showcasing the electrifying talent of our own Luka Pryce. This 8-song collection captures the raw energy and dynamic performance of a live concert, offering listeners a journey through diverse musical landscapes with each track.

The EP features an eclectic mix of artists, including uSimamane, 54 Swagga, Sammified, and Owtoo, whose distinct voices and styles blend seamlessly with Luka Pryce's vision. Together, they create a rich tapestry of sound that is both captivating and memorable.

The journey begins with the electrifying "Cosmic Crescendo," where Ntobeh's soulful background vocals set the stage for an unforgettable musical odyssey. As the experience unfolds, listeners are treated to a variety of genres and moods, from the high-energy beats of 54 Swagga to the introspective melodies of Sammified.

Amber's ethereal background vocals on the seventh track, "Yours," add a layer of depth and emotion, elevating the song to new heights and leaving a lasting impression.

The Avenue is not just an EP; it's an experience that invites listeners to feel the pulse of a live performance, the connection between artists and audience, and the magic that happens when music comes alive. Join us on this musical journey and let The Avenue be the soundtrack to your next adventure. Luka Pryce, under the banner of Southside Avenue, is proud to present this extraordinary project.

                       Lyrics:

[VERSE: SOLO JENKINS]

And I woke up this morning

Living life in the moment

I was supposed to be following my calling

Meditate mix some weed keep it all in 

Make some plans we can all win


My competition can't write me the verse I like 

Hip hop is dead guess I met it in the afterlife

Real KAST underrated like your friends advice


If I'm keeping it real

I guess I'm saving this universe

I don't understand the way it works, I make it work 

The truth of my knowledge in every verse

Turn a page, turn the mic on

I call it work, I heard it first 


I'm the light I'm the son that is shining 

I'm the reason that my family is smiling

I'm the one who brings the jazz chill vibes in

And I would rather keep rising


Black kings affirmation

Lost kid destination

And I can do with some mediation 

In the face of adversity

I make these records spread them universally 

That's way before university 

And thats way before many heard of me


While Black kids elevating

Black hearts full of hatred

I don't have say more of it


[ OUTRO: SOLO JENKINS ] 

Leave that fantasy

It's not a real place to be 

Get with reality

Open your eyes and see

[Lyrics]


mali iyabizwa, zaph, zaph, zaph
sabel’ xa ndibizwa, huh, huh, huh
grab a chance a freeza, uh, uh, uh
tie it like a fitsa, yuh, yuh, yuh

I cannot believe y’all don’t think I could take it far
shit, I don’t need a reason, I might make it pass the stars
kunini ufryza i feature okay mhlamb’ ndzak’nika one
ndzok’nika, don’t forget me xa unemal’

aye
mal’yam
izapha, nd’yak’biza mal’yam


I ain’t got time to hang out, I got plans
only time I’m out is when I’m collecting, yea,  yea
told you I need that advance
only go out for the bag
might put you all in my trance, yea, yea, yea

cosha my shit then I dash
a man that’s got principles losing it daily still hoping that he never crash
youth from communities taking it all to be living the life for the flashes
still working for another nigga I never met, stuck between me and the cash
got more than alot on my plate
hol’ up
got the whole world in my hands 
breaking the rules, never fair, yo
my split should be more than a half

might do this whole shit on my own
trust the process, stay in the mode
only mistake I’d make is dying broke
know there’s everything is this dark road



ndikbalele ingxaki zam?
ndakfakele konke okfunayo
niku Thixo konke okwam
zonke izinto zizolunga

WOES (Prod. Niner Konnekt & Roy August)

Taste my blood wounds
It's develish,that's right
Infinity kisses
Before we lose our life
Imagine all these
Open wounds
Fucking on your tomb
Zombies on the loose
I’m still with the goons
I'm ahead of my time
I don't pick any side
But it's lit on this side
Don't you know i got pride,for real
I don't waste anytime,for real
Bitch i get what is mine,for real
Niggas way out of line,for real
Niggas don't follow christ,for real
Kamara sutra flip the
Bitch like the book
I been on some shit
That's not understood
My aura blazing like
The sun when its crook
Moon gazing when it's time to be new
Time is a never end
Obligation to me
When the silhouettes drift
Do you feel me
Drinking our sorrows away
Got a blickie, it illuminates cities
Taste my blood wounds
It's develish, that's right
Infinity kisses
Before we lose our life
Imagine all these
Open wounds
Fucking on your tomb
Zombies on the loose
I’m still with the goons
