About Shwele:
Rudeboyz paired up with Durban’s DJ Tira and Dladla Mshunqisi on a blazing Gqom single Shwele. It is a fun filled song infused with the signature KZN originated sound of kwaito fused with high tempo electro influenced production that is produced by Massive Q and Andile Tee.
The Shwele lyrics when translated means, “sorry,” for actions done under the influence of bev. The chorus implies how possibly the writer was under the influence and is asking forgiveness from God. Dladla Mshunqisi comes in to emphasise the forgiveness part with his signature falsetto which makes the song a vibe for Gqom lovers.
