Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Diba Diba is back in the music industry and already reclaiming his throne as the king of vernacular Hip Hop.<\/b><\/p>\n

Diba Diba, real name Banele Dlamini is set to release his first single \u2018Monate\u2019 for his upcoming project titled \u2018Macansi\u2019.<\/p>\n

The single will be released this Thursday.<\/p>\n

During an interview with this reporter, Dlamini revealed that \u2018Monate\u2019 was a reminder that Black is King.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Monate\u2019 is about empowering black excellence. It is about being comfortable in your own skin. It is a reminder to black people that they are worth it and they do not need to seek any validation from any race that is deemed \u2018superior\u2019. It is a reminder that \u2018Black is King\u2019,\u201d said Dlamini.<\/p>\n

Dlamini further mentioned that the track was produced by Aos at Lifetime Music.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am solo in this particular track which was produced by Aos at Lifetime Music. The track was inspired by noticing the fact that as black people or Africans in general we are capable of doing so much for ourselves. We are kings and queens enough and we need not to seek validation from external forces,\u201d said Dlamini.<\/p>\n

The artist further mentioned his future plans with this reporter.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy plan is to continue touring Eswatini, reconnect with my fans and take my music to the world. I am focusing all my energy on my upcoming project \u2018Macansi\u2019, which I hope to complete by the end of this year. Otherwise, I will be releasing more music, more videos and entertaining people through my art,\u201d said Dlamini.<\/p>\n

On December 19, 2022, this publication reported Ngwane Hip Hop artist Diba Diba will be touring different regions as he embarks on his Macansi Tour. The tour kicked off in November at Pixies Next Chapter in Ntabamhloshana. The rapper further revealed he would be touring regionally throughout 2023. \u201cMacansi Tour 2022\/2023 is basically about me performing in different venues and regions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
