Black Motion\u2019s Smol has hinted that he and former group member M\u00f6rda are now in a good place after a rocky two-year public spat \u2013 their reunion sees the release of their collaboration song, Takala Zwino<\/em>, <\/em>which is an ode to friendship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real name Roy Thabo Mabogwane, Smol and his former group member M\u00f6rda formally known as Murdah Bongz, were the founding members of the popular Afro-house group that hit stardom in 2010.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After 12 years as a unit, that produced hits like Rainbow, iMali<\/em> and Joy Joy<\/em>, M\u00f6rda, whose real name is Bongani Mohosana \u2013 husband to DJ Zinhle \u2013 chose to leave the established two-man group [in 2022] to rebrand and pursue a career as a solo artist in the local and international music industry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This left Smol in a compromising and confusing position on whether he too should explore his chances as a solo drummer \u2013 a move he told Sowetan SMag that he was hesitant to take. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to lie, that phase was a very weird time for me. It\u2019s inexplicable actually because we were just fresh from the pandemic and I thought we were trying to rebuild from the time lost under lockdown,\u201d said the 38-year-old musician. \u201cThen you find out that you\u2019re not going to rebuild but instead you\u2019d be starting from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c[Looking back], I\u2019m glad that phase happened because it put me in a space where I had to ask myself what I wanted as a musician and one half of a household musical band.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smol expressed there was a great deal to consider regarding his next move, most of which were the group\u2019s fans. Some he claims got married to the catalogue of their smash hits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSome of our supporters met at our shows years ago and are now a family \u2013 these people have put their lives in our hands as musicians, so I had no choice but to consider them when it came to keeping and sustaining the brand Black Motion,\u201d said the drummer from Soshanguve, north of Pretoria. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI also look at music groups such as Ladysmith Black Mambazo who have been in existence for over 40 years\u2026 there\u2019s no way they didn\u2019t have problems or others wanting to leave the group. So, during that time, I looked for solutions more than anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The much-anticipated song, which drops on May 10, also features Afrikan Roots and Deejay Buckz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTakala Zwino<\/em> is about savouring the good times with good friends. That nothing else matters but the present moment with your inner people or bloodline. It means that through anything, we will make it\u2026 despite what we go through, my day one is still my day one,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was playing live [online] a couple of months ago sharing this new song; this sparked interest from Afrikan Roots, and Buckz said he too would like to hop on. Somehow our live session was shared on the Tsa ko Pitori Instagram page of us in the studio which M\u00f6rda saw\u2026 he then asked to join in the song. I saw no issue and I agreed mainly because I knew the joy it\u2019d bring to people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli, but the Little Blind Text didn\u2019t listen. She packed her seven versalia, put her initial into the belt and made herself on the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
