Saudi Makes Heartfelt Plea For More Features With Emtee. In an unexpected and heartfelt appeal, Saudi took to social media to request something unconventional yet potentially game-changing for his and Emtee‘s forthcoming solo albums.
The rapper asked fans, industry peers, and music lovers to embrace the idea of each artist featuring no more than five collaborators on their respective projects—an approach that emphasizes their artistry over collaboration.
“Dear South A’, Dear world, labels, peers & lovers of music 🙏🏼,” Saudi began in his post. “Please allow me & Emtee The Hustla to have 5 or me features on our solo albums. This is something that’s never happened. Please allow it to happen, you will be pleased with the results.”
The request marks a significant departure from the typical feature-heavy albums that dominate the hip-hop scene. Saudi further assured fans and critics alike that the move is not a dismissal of their “trappy trappy” roots but a step toward showcasing a broader range of their artistry.
Fans have reacted with excitement and curiosity, with many expressing support for the bold move. The decision could potentially set a new standard in the industry, proving that sometimes, less is more when it comes to collaborations.
Saudi’s post not only reflects his vision for musical growth but also signals a shift towards more unity and experimentation within the SA hip-hop community. If this plea becomes a reality, it might usher in a new era of collaborations that elevate the genre to even greater heights.
The ball is now in the court of fans, labels, and fellow artists to rally behind this call for a collaborative masterpiece from two of South Africa’s most influential rappers.
