SBX Ignites the Dancefloor with “They Say (Kususa Remix)”

South African sensation SBX continues to push the boundaries of her artistry with the release of They Say (Kususa Remix) — a vibrant reimagining of her 2024 single by acclaimed electronic and Afro-house duo Kususa. Originally a moody, introspective track exploring themes of resisting judgment in relationships, They Say now pulses with high-energy Afro-house beats, transforming it into a dancefloor-ready anthem that perfectly blends SBX’s soulful vocals with Kususa’s electrifying production.

Dropped on 18 July 2025, the remix stays true to SBX’s core message of defiance and self-empowerment while injecting Kususa’s signature rhythmic layers, pulsating drums, and hypnotic synths. This fusion creates a seamless balance between introspective lyricism and irresistible grooves, making it an instant favorite for club-goers and festival crowds alike.

They Say marks a key milestone in SBX’s ongoing creative evolution, which she dubs “the metamorphosis.” This new chapter sees her embracing electronic and dance-pop sounds, adding fresh dimensions to her music after years of acclaim in R&B and hip-hop. The remix highlights SBX’s versatility as an artist unafraid to explore bold new sonic landscapes while maintaining her authentic voice.

Born in Pretoria East and raised in Empangeni, KwaZulu-Natal, SBX has steadily risen from a promising newcomer to a standout star since her 2020 debut. Influenced by icons such as Rihanna, Lebo Mathosa, and Aaliyah, her music is deeply personal and relatable, chronicling the complexities of love, identity, and growth.

SBX’s impressive rise includes earning an Honours degree in Dramatic Arts from the University of Witwatersrand in 2022, followed by the release of her debut EP These Songs Are About You. The EP’s lead single “4U” gained traction on the Trace Urban Top 30 Charts, setting the stage for follow-up projects These Songs Are About You Too and Now That It’s Over. These releases featured fan favorites like “Why?”, “Dues,” “Cycles,” and “Be With You,” further cementing her reputation in the South African music scene.

Beyond music, SBX’s influence extends into fashion, with notable collaborations including a partnership with Levi’s that showcases her multidimensional appeal as both a musician and style icon.

With the release of They Say (Kususa Remix), SBX is poised to make waves not only across South Africa but on the global stage. Her fearless fusion of genres and fresh artistic vision position her as one of the country’s most promising crossover artists—ready to captivate audiences worldwide with her evolving sound and undeniable presence.
