Zulu Makhathini Drops Debut Solo Single ‘Uniform Swag’ Ft. DJ Tira

Zulu Makhathini Drops Debut Solo Single ‘Uniform Swag’ Ft. DJ Tira. Former Dreamteam member Dash who now goes by the name Zulu Makhathini has just dropped his debut solo single Uniform Swag The single was put to perfection with the collaboration of Afrotainment boss, DJ Tira.

“So I have been slowly unveiling a bit of myself. I’m no longer that kid that was Dash. I’m no longer just a hip-hop figure. That name was kind of restricting me,” he explains.

Uniform Swag was produced by DJ Maphorisa and DJ Catzico. Mkhathini’s new journey is commercially-viable groove and grind that is way different from what his former team did.

“Many people can call it gqom or even say I’m rapping on it or call it electro-dance. People can say a lot of things, but I call it ‘genre-free’ because I fuse a lot of different genres into one, which is the direction I’m trying to go as a solo artist,” he pointed  out.

He emphasises the importance of releasing the song just two days before the 42nd anniversary of the June 16 1976 Soweto uprising.

“I’ve travelled the world and I’ve seen that in many places people are very strict with their uniform. But in South Africa individuals have found a way to bring out their uniqueness.

“Yes, I believe that we need rules and regulations, but Uniform Swag to me is how you make those clothes represent you to the world. It’s taking the basic and making it your own – whether it’s through accessories or your personality.

“It’s been so many years since the Soweto youth uprising and I have this fear that in the next 40 years we won’t talk about it or even commemorate it as we should.

“So how do we present it to the new generation? How do you make it relevant and relatable to them? I thought I would do it in a way that will interest the new generation,” he said.
