EMAZWENI HITMAKER TO DROP AN ALBUM
iyabonga Chauke, also known as AMI BLXCK, is a talented rapper and producer from Thembisa. With his unique blend of hip-hop and Mapiano, he promises to shake up the industry. He is currently working on his smashing album, which is expected to be released by the end of 2023. The 21-year-old artist found himself working on a song with Quiteria, a professional designer who has worked with multiple big stars like Beyonce, Nadia Nakai, Eva Modika, and more. This was the beginning of great things in his career. About growing up in the township, he said: “Growing up in a township with a lot of violence and not having equipment made it tough, but I kept going.”
He worked hard to create music despite the lack of resources. He produced several songs, some of which became hits. Phila Dlozi and NYR came together on a song called Emazweni, which was also used in a Netflix movie called Collusion. It was Ami’s collaboration with Khokho Madlala further solidified his success in music. Being the goal-driven artist that he is, Ami Blxck is looking forward to making his mark in SA music. He said he’ll test the waters by releasing a single before releasing his studio album. His debut album Elements Of Blxck is expected to come out towards the end of the year. He believes that the single will help him build a fanbase before the album’s release. Ami Blxck will also be releasing music videos to accompany the single and the album to create a fully immersive experience for his fans.
