Ndizekanye Nkosi (2026)

# SMUNCUMUNCU Announces *Ndizekanye Nkosi*, a Six-Track Maskandi EP

SMUNCUMUNCU will release *Ndizekanye Nkosi*, a six-track Maskandi EP, on 10 October 2026. The project marks the artist’s latest recorded offering and presents a compact set of songs under a title that translates to “Shine upon me, Lord.”

The EP opens with “Banoyolo”, followed by “Thandaza” and “Ubafazini”. Its second half includes “Ootata abathathu”, the title track “Ndizekanye Nkosi”, and “Ndiyahamba”. With no featured artists listed, the project is centred entirely on SMUNCUMUNCU’s own voice and artistic direction.

At six tracks, *Ndizekanye Nkosi* is a focused listen rather than an expansive album-length statement. The sequencing gives the release a clear shape, moving from its opening track through four further songs before arriving at the title track and closing with “Ndiyahamba”. That concise format makes the EP an accessible entry point for listeners looking to discover SMUNCUMUNCU within the Maskandi tradition.

The available information does not specify the individual themes, production details or stories behind the songs, so the EP is best approached through its tracklist, title and genre identity. What is clear is that *Ndizekanye Nkosi* is a direct, artist-led Maskandi project with a six-song runtime and no collaborative detours.

*Ndizekanye Nkosi* is due out on 10 October 2026.
