In the ever-expanding world of Amapiano, few artists have managed to carve out a lane as distinct and spiritually resonant as Josiah De Disciple. Known for his deep, soulful productions and emotive storytelling, Josiah has become synonymous with a sound that heals as much as it entertains. Now, he’s preparing to share his most personal body of work yet, a brand-new EP titled uThando noMoya (Love & Spirit), set for release on Monday, 8 September 2025.
At its core, uThando noMoya is more than just eight tracks woven together; it’s a meditation on the values that shape African homes, love, unity, resilience, and spirit. It’s music rooted in memory, inspired by family traditions, and crafted with the intention of connecting hearts.
“This EP is more than music — it’s an offering of love and spirit to my people,” Josiah says. “It’s inspired by the warmth of our families, the lessons we inherit, and the beauty of our culture.”
True to his ethos of “lift as you rise,” Josiah has invited some of the scene’s most promising young voices to journey with him on this project. Collaborations with Ntokzin, Leandro Vert, and Zeenhle add fresh textures to his already rich soundscape, creating a multi-layered experience where soulful harmonies meet intricate rhythms and stories unfold with every beat.
But what makes uThando noMoya stand out is its depth. Where much of Amapiano thrives on dance-floor energy, Josiah’s Spiritual Amapiano lane digs deeper, touching on the emotional and cultural threads that bind people together. The EP carries both the intimacy of shared family moments and the expansiveness of communal celebration — a rare balance that feels timeless.
Fans won’t have to wait too long to get a taste of this offering. Pre-orders are now open at josiahdedisciple.ink.to/uThandonoMoya, with two standout singles — Amasango and K’phelile — available instantly as an early preview of what’s to come.
With uThando noMoya, Josiah De Disciple isn’t just releasing an EP; he’s delivering a cultural moment — a reminder that Amapiano, at its most powerful, is both music for the soul and a mirror of the African spirit.
Come 8 September 2025, expect to be moved, uplifted, and inspired.
