Pre-Order Opens 28 November 2025, Second IG Single Drops 12 December, Full EP Out 6 February 2026
TribeSoul has officially confirmed that his highly anticipated EP, Backroom Music, will open for pre-order on 28 November 2025. Fans can expect the second Instagram-exclusive single on 12 December 2025, ahead of the full project release on 6 February 2026.
A Celebration of Authentic Amapiano and Township Ingenuity
Backroom Music was created in a real backroom in Soweto — the same space where TribeSoul grew up. The project honours the raw, grounded spirit of Amapiano and the unfiltered creativity born e’Kasi, capturing the essence of music “by the people, for the people.”
“Where You Start Doesn’t Define Where You Can Go” — TribeSoul
Reflecting on the EP’s meaning, TribeSoul shares:
“Backroom Music is my story — a reminder that where you start doesn’t define where you can go. I made this EP in the same backroom I grew up in, and I hope it inspires anyone with a dream to keep going, no matter how small their space is.”
Spotlighting Township Talent
The project also highlights the exceptional yet often overlooked talent within township communities. TribeSoul’s journey from a tiny backroom studio to a national platform is a testament to the power of resilience and innovation.
A Strong Collaborator Line-Up
The EP features an impressive lineup of collaborators, including:
- Mdu aka TRP
- Tots SA
- Musa Keys
- Low Bass
- Divine
- Toby Franco
- Blissful Sax
- Happy Jazzman
- JazzyMicDeep
- HouseXcape
Each artist brings their unique sound, adding depth and diversity to the project.
Inspired by the Roots, Built for the Future
TribeSoul hopes Backroom Music inspires young creators to embrace their origins and believe in the strength of starting small.
