# Ofishabakhulu Announces *Ezodumo Vol. 1*, a 13-Track Maskandi Album

Ofishabakhulu will release *Ezodumo Vol. 1* on 28 August 2026, bringing a 13-track Maskandi project to listeners. The album is built around Ofishabakhulu’s lead presence, with a strong emphasis on collaboration across its tracklist.

The project features recurring appearances from Busani Nelisani Mseleku, who is credited across much of the album. Busani Mseleku also appears on several tracks, while BN Mseleku contributes to “Imfene Kamakhelwane” and “Sondela Sthandwa”. The broadest collaboration comes on “Hamba Kuhlupheka”, which features Tessa Masoka alongside Busani Nelisani Mseleku.

The album opens with “Lungibambe Shiqe” featuring Busani Mseleku, before moving through a sequence of songs that includes “Behlela Ngezansi”, “Njengoba Sishada” and “Udumoluyangilandela”. Later tracks such as “Salubamba Udonga”, “Ubaba Womntanami” and “Udliwa Yini” continue the project’s collaborative focus. The closing song, “Laxokiza Ixoki”, features Busani Mseleku.

Other notable guest appearances include Imeya kazwelonke on “Udliwa Yini”, Shwi Mantombazane on “Isiyoyoyo”, and Umbilobomvu Inyosi on “Bayongivuma Mhla Ngifile”.

With 13 tracks and a guest list that repeatedly brings together members of the Mseleku circle with additional Maskandi voices, *Ezodumo Vol. 1* presents itself as a collaboration-led album. For listeners exploring contemporary Maskandi, the project’s main point of interest is its network of featured artists and the range of vocal pairings spread across the tracklist.

*Ezodumo Vol. 1* by Ofishabakhulu is scheduled for release on 28 August 2026.
