Recording artist, producer and DJ, MVZZLE gets us in the party spirit as he premieres the official music video to his major-label debut ‘Uzalo’. The single, released at the beginning of the national lockdown, has achieved major success at radio, even reaching the national top 20 most played songs. The song which continues to blaze across national radio solidifies MVZZLE’s hit-maker status.
MVZZLE famously featured on DJ Zinhle’s massive hit Umlilo which featured Rethabile and Donald’s most recent single, Black Love, and is now ready to carve his solo music career. In 8 years, the 25 year old Producer and DJ has gone from playing at local clubs to placing third in SABC 1’s televised Dj competition, 1’s and 2’s to gracing stages such as the DSTV Mzansi’s Viewers’ Choice Awards, Motsepe Foundation Celebration, and Major League Gardens amongst others. All this, whilst collecting his first #1 with Zinhle’s ‘Umlilo’.
Directed by Monde Dube, the video is shot between two locations in Johannesburg, and is a visual representation of the song’s essence – love. The jovial visuals are a perfect way to usher in the blooming of Spring.
Says MVZZLE: “Shooting a video during a global pandemic was slightly nerve wrecking, but the team ensured a safe and very closed set, who all took care to ensure that we got the best visuals. It felt good to be out, in a beautiful environment doing what I love – it reminded me of the beauty in freedom and I hope that everyone feels the same when they see the visuals.”
