The voices of Venda are growing louder, and 015 is stepping into the spotlight with ‘He Ndaa‘, a new and expressive track. Produced by the talented J-Smash and MashBeatz, ‘He Ndaa‘ brings together the lyrical artistry of Given Da Chief and Saudi in a song that speaks about perseverance, ambition, and the beauty of overcoming challenges.
The song carries a message that resonates with many, the struggles, the dreams, and the relentless pursuit of something greater. One powerful line captures this sentiment:
“Kani ro bebelwa u filimba”
(Were we born just to suffer?)
With a memorable hook:
“015 He Ndaa! Khobva ndi fhasi He Ndaa! Hudo baleya thase He Ndaa!” – and a rich sound.
‘He Ndaa‘ is a tribute to hard work and the victories that come with it. It’s a song for those who have walked difficult paths but refuse to be defined by struggle alone.
Saudi delivers a standout verse that reflects the hustle and edge of Johannesburg life, with lines like “No sleeping we hustle, He Ndaa He Ndaa” and “Jozi my city, He Ndaa.” His words are raw and vivid, painting a picture of ambition, loyalty, and survival in the 011 streets.
People from all over Limpopo often journey to Johannesburg in search of better opportunities, chasing dreams and following the call of their hearts. ‘He Ndaa‘ captures that journey, the grit, the grind, and the hope that drives so many to leave home and make their mark.
J-Smash and MashBeatz’s production blends seamlessly with the heartfelt delivery of Given Da Chief and Saudi, creating a soundscape that is both powerful and moving.
This is more than music, it’s an anthem of remembrance of what is attainable. With ‘He Ndaa‘, 015 continues to carve out its place in the world.
Venda is not just watching, it’s stepping forward. And this is only the beginning.
‘He Ndaa‘ is available on all streaming platforms as of 17 July 2025.
