A blissful experience then a sudden sobering experience to mirror the rollercoaster that is the South African experience.

Umgowo ZA (feat. WASHA X)

Bless (feat. WASHA X)

Staying true to his style of mixing bravado with vulnerability, Xenlaii melodically offloads what's in his mind and what he's going through on a very hypnotic & bass melody driven instrumental.  While making us dance, he tells us to Level Up to the next stage in our lives.

LEVEL UP (Prod. by The Gaijin!)

This is the mastered/final version of How To Play, where Xenlaii melodically delivers a story about his experience in a ''no strings attached'' situation. Amarafleur blesses the song with her angelic vocals that contrast Xenlaii's voice and we have a sweet and sour sonic experience which mirrors this wild relationship that Xenlaii was in.

How To Play ft. Amarafleur

Taken from his Surf AM EP, Kwaze
Kwamnadi tells a story of high-class females, Margarita wine drinking and afterparty’s in the northern suburbs of Durban. He paints this picture with the intoxicated grunge texture in his voice flowing over a groovy hypnotic instrumental.

Ballito Prayer Single

Ballito Prayer (ft. Paul B)

Surf : AM is an emotional journey expressed through sound a visuals. It captures a midnight experience in the city of Durban and bundles it up into an EP that sonically resembles the movement of a wave (how it rises and crashes). Xenlaii escaped to Durban after losing his mother with the hopes that the nightlife of the coast would help him forgot but the nights would be extreme highs that would be met by extreme lows in the morning when reality strikes again. He was surfing through emotions during this period. If you listen to the EP you will hear that it starts off quite mellow but groovy then rises to the more cocky/reckless side of Xenlaii then crashes at the end to the more introspective side of him.
