Local afro house group Mi Casa just dropped their impressive fifth studio album ‘We Made It’ earlier this year to rave reviews. The project has already spawned the hits ‘Church Bells’ and ‘Eve’ and now, Mi Casa are easing fans into summer as they pick fan-favourite ‘Mamela’ as the third single off the project.
‘Mamela’ sees Mi Casa do what they do best – kick-start a party while tapping into the listener’s emotion with their soulful storytelling and soothing vocals.
J’Something, the group’s lead singer, says that ‘Mamela’ is the one song off the new album that means the most to him personally so, naturally, he was thrilled with the positive response the song received since its release. “[This] a song that stands for one of the most trying times in my life,” the singer explains. “The song is a story about a man and a woman facing an extremely tricky situation and they find their hope in dreaming of a getaway. They escape their reality in their day dream. It’s an incredible love story.”
‘We Made It’ continues to dominate streaming charts around Africa and recently hit an impressive 2.5 million streams globally – with more than a quarter of those streams coming from Namibia.
