In a groundbreaking move set to shake the foundations of the music genre, two of the Eastern Cape's most formidable voices—Uyihlo and Bhut Legend—have joined forces for a joint album titled _Belligerent Bastards_. Scheduled for release on October 31st, 2025, under Africhili Entertainment, this project is already being hailed as a cultural milestone.
This cross-provincial alliance is deeply rooted in Xhosa identity, bridging the musical landscapes of Gqeberha, Mthatha, and Cape Town. Uyihlo, renowned for his introspective and poetic lyricism, and Bhut Legend, a firebrand storyteller from Mthatha, have crafted a body of work that is raw, fearless, and unapologetically Xhosa.
The title _Belligerent Bastards_ is a bold declaration of defiance and pride. It speaks to the artists' refusal to conform, their resilience in the face of adversity, and their commitment to telling their stories unapologetically.
_Belligerent Bastards_ promises to be a significant release in the South African music scene, showcasing the power of collaboration and the richness of Xhosa culture.
