MAFUCULA -A tribute to a local artist!
Emerging from the heart of Mafucula, Nqobizwe Dlamini, better known by his stage name Memorie Endee, has just released a heartfelt Amapiano track titled “GHOST,” now available on YouTube and Vidmate.
This song is more than just a musical drop; it serves as a tribute to one of his community’s rising stars, Neliswa Msibi, affectionately known as Ghost a talented lady soccer player currently representing Manzini Wanderers.
“Ghost” transcends the realm of a typical club banger; it stands as a community statement. Memorie uses this track to show support to Neliswa, reminding her and the youth of Mafucula that they’re all in this journey together. “We grew up in the same hood, and I want her to know that we’ve got her back,” says Memorie, highlighting the importance of community bonds.
The track features a stellar line-up of local talents: Lass Number, Pop Swxzie, 12 Kaice SD, and Catboy Eswatini, creating a rich blend of sounds and voices that celebrate hometown pride and unity.
Memorie began his musical journey back in 2020 while in Form 3 at Mafucula High School. He demonstrated impressive growth and adaptability, initially starting in the world of hip hop, inspired by his idol eMTee Da Hustler, rapping along to his hits before discovering his own lyrical voice. Over time, he found himself drawn to the infectious energy of Amapiano, ultimately embracing the genre as his creative home.
His journey launched with the release of his debut track “Times of My Life,” featuring Zamtel ZS and TMZ Boiz, which introduced his voice to the world. Since then, he has continued to rise, building a name for himself in Eswatini’s growing Amapiano scene.
Looking ahead, Memorie dreams of collaborating with notable artists like Real Sintour and Young ZESH Intwanencane, as he aims to elevate his sound and represent the spirit of Mafucula.
With “Ghost,” Memorie has once again proven that music is not just about beats and lyrics; it’s about telling stories uplifting others, and staying true to your roots.
