Stream Boity’s ‘018’s Finest’ (Remix) [feat. 25K, William Last KRM, Towdee Mac & Venom] – out now
From Pheli, to Potch, Maftwon, PTA and then Gabs City – that’s the line up to Boity’s remix to the much-celebrated 018, a song she originally put out on her 4436 albums, a song which originally featured Maglera Doe Boy and Ginger Trill.
This time she’s put together a new cast for the remix, taking a backseat as she continues to put her hood on, and while at it she is letting others affiliated with the Bokone Bophorima come through and represent their area codes on the remix, with 25K, William Last KRM, Towdee Mac & Venom. Lovely to see more connections between ZA and BW artists once more. Boity’s manager Bash Vision dropped a shout to Rozay Feggie of Diamond Dust on making the link to William Last KRM happen, that’s how he ended up on it, big up to him and obviously Boity and team for putting our boy on it.

Some songs flex, some songs motivate, and some hit that rare balance—a track that both lifts you up and keeps it real. Don Thugga’s “Tumelo Tshepo”? It’s that joint. A smooth, introspective cut that’s drenched in hustle mentality, it’s hope music—but without the corny aftertaste.
From the jump, Thugga laces the beat with grind talk, laying out the realities of chasing a dream, the work that goes into it, and the doubters who sit on the sidelines. But instead of getting caught in the noise, he stays locked in—hopeful, hungry, and locked into his purpose.
The weight of Dramaboi’s influence looms large here. You feel it. This isn’t just a name-drop; it’s a genuine nod to a mentor, a motivator, a believer in his craft. And then there’s the deeper personal layer—“Tshepo” isn’t just a concept, it’s his mother’s name. That’s the kind of detail that makes the record hit differently.
Production-wise, the song keeps it clean, no gimmicks, letting Don Thugga’s wordplay and presence carry the weight. It’s an easy listen, but not in a throwaway way—it sits with you, lingers in your mind after the beat fades.
