Sizwe Alakine Makes Final Steps Toward “Audio 2D (Dear Darkie)” Album Release
Sizwe Alakine Makes Final Steps Toward “Audio 2D (Dear Darkie)” Album Release. Renowned for his versatility and musical evolution, Sizwe Alakine (formerly Reason) is ready to take the final step toward the highly anticipated release of his album, “Audio 2D (Dear Darkie).”
This project marks a significant milestone in his career, blending his experimental creativity with deep-rooted narratives. Scheduled to drop on Friday 13 September, “Audio 2D (Dear Darkie)” has generated buzz in the local hip-hop circles.
Sizwe Alakine, who has consistently pushed the boundaries of South African music, continues to reinvent himself, channelling his distinct sound through a fusion of Amapiano and hip-hop and the upcoming kasi rap album will be another evidence of his musical versatility.
In an exciting Instagram update, the rapper unveiled the album cover art while announcing that pre-saves are officially live for fans. “This Friday 13 September, I present to you the Sizwe Alakine kasi rap album #DearDarkie aka #Audio2D Pre-Save the Album and enjoy the exclusives,” Reason announced.
In a series of teasers and social media updates, Sizwe Alakine has offered a glimpse into the themes explored in Audio 2D (Dear Darkie). “We are rapping, there’s no Imithandazo or no prayers we’re rapping. Please get that sh*t, and tell me what you think, its called Audio 2D, Reason’s first album was Audio 3D, and Sizwe Alakine’s first rap album is called Audio 2D (Dear Darkie) for all the darkies out there thank you very much I appreciate you,” he said during an interview on Choppin It With Bhuda T.
Sizwe Alakine is no stranger to evolution. Starting his career as Reason, he quickly rose through the ranks with sharp lyricism, socially conscious bars, and dynamic collaborations. However, his recent pivot to the Amapiano scene, while staying true to his hip-hop roots, has allowed him to tap into an even broader audience. Fans of both genres are now eagerly awaiting what promises to be a genre-bending project that reflects his growth and adaptability.
With the final touches being placed on the album, Sizwe Alakine is on the verge of delivering one of his most important works yet.
