South African music producer and DJ Mkhululi Siqula, better known as Heavy K, is making waves once again—this time with an exciting collaboration with legendary US rapper Busta Rhymes. According to Daily Sun, the Veeplaas-born hitmaker from Gqeberha is set to release three tracks with the iconic rapper, which will feature on Busta Rhymes upcoming album.

The duo first connected during Busta Rhymes’ visit to South Africa for his performance at the DStv Delicious Festival on September 21. Reflecting on the collaboration, Heavy K shared his admiration for Busta’s humility and passion for music. “Busta Rhymes is incredibly humble, very genuine, and truly appreciates good music. He has a sharp ear for different sounds, from house to amapiano, and it’s clear he’s passionate about all genres,” Heavy K told Daily Sun.

Their collaboration happened quickly, but the chemistry was undeniable. “We didn’t have much time, so I played him a few beats. When he heard the first one, he went crazy. He started freestyling immediately, and soon after, we recorded three tracks together, which he plans to include on his next album,” Heavy K explained.

One of the standout elements of their partnership is the fusion of dancehall and South African sounds. “Busta brought that Jamaican vibe to the tracks, which was new for me. I’ve never had a dancehall artist on my songs before, and it really worked this time. It’s a unique fusion,” Heavy K added.

Beyond the studio, Heavy K gave Busta Rhymes a taste of South African culture by taking him to Soweto to experience the vibrant kasi life. “We went to Soweto, and the people loved him. It was incredible to see how he connected with South Africans. He wasn’t just about the big stages; he wanted to experience the local scene.”

For Heavy K, this collaboration is more than just a career milestone—it’s a message to the next generation of African artists. “Our music is no longer just local. We’re on the same level as international artists. The only difference is their platform is bigger, but things are changing. This is a great time for South African and African music,” he concluded.
