Woza 2030

# Maqhinga Hadebe Announces *Woza 2030*, a 13-Track Maskandi Album

Maqhinga Hadebe’s *Woza 2030* is a 13-track Maskandi album scheduled for release on 16 October 2026. The project places Hadebe at the centre of a wide collaborative cast, with Maqhinga Stanley Radebe appearing across every track and additional contributions from artists including Limit Nala, Nzuzo Wezihlabani, KaMaphanga, Menzi Music, Zenzele and Sibusiso Derick Nkosi.

That recurring presence gives the album a clear collaborative identity rather than presenting it as a strictly solo statement. Maqhinga Stanley Radebe is credited on all 13 songs, while several tracks expand the lineup further: “Khethile Khethile” features Limit Nala, Sabelo Nala and Radebe; “Woza 2030” brings together Nzuzo Wezihlabani, Radebe and Nzuzo Ndiyaza; and “i1000” includes KaMaphanga, Radebe and Nokwanda Asanda Maphanga.

The tracklist also points to a project shaped by varied song titles and a contemporary Maskandi outlook. “iType Yami”, “Tshelani iEx” and “eChina” sit alongside titles such as “Inkomo”, “Amawele” and “Bathathu”, suggesting a release that moves across different subjects and reference points without stepping outside its genre identity. The title track, “Woza 2030”, arrives as the album’s third song and features one of the project’s largest collaborative combinations.

Other notable pairings include “Uyakuthanda” with Zenzele and Maqhinga Stanley Radebe, “Igama Alipheli” with Minenhle Seluleko Masibonge Mahlaba, and “Inkomo” with Sibusiso Derick Nkosi. Several songs—“Ukusmile”, “Imali Yokuza”, “Amawele”, “Tshelani iEx” and “Bathathu”—keep the credited lineup more focused on Hadebe and Radebe.

With 13 tracks and a consistent network of collaborators, *Woza 2030* is positioned as a substantial 2026 Maskandi release. Its appeal will lie in hearing how Maqhinga Hadebe uses that recurring partnership with Maqhinga Stanley Radebe while bringing different voices into individual songs. For listeners following contemporary Maskandi and collaborative South African releases, the album is one to keep on the radar ahead of its 16 October release.
