Renowned collaborative duo, Venom and Shishiliza, have returned with a new offering following the success of their debut album, ‘Love Is Pain’ in 2022. Their highly anticipated single, ‘Flight Ya Hoseng,’ comes just days after celebrating the second anniversary of their multi-platinum hit single ‘Sondela.’
Venom, a Zambian-South African hip-hop DJ, radio host, and entrepreneur, has been making waves in the music industry. According to a report by the Lol entertainment news, the SAMA nominated duo had released their new single titled ‘Flight Ya Hoseng’ featuring an all-star crew on board the lovers anthem; the soulful Nomfundo Moh, mfana Pitori, hitmaker Ch’cco, and talented singer/songwriter Baby S.O.N.
After the success of ‘Sondela’, Venom and Shishiliza decided to get in the studio with Yumbs again to work on a new hit. Bits and pieces were recorded in 2022, but then they hit a snag figuring out their next moves for the song. “We’ve been teasing the song for about a year on social media and it never caught on and yeah, we just decided to go super aggressive with it and it caught on but I think it also is a timing thing,” explained Sebastian “Shishiliza” Jameson.
The duo created hype around the single, taking to their social media handles to call all passengers to make a booking for their ‘Flight Ya Hoseng’, gaining traction across all user-generated content platforms. Jameson also said: “If we had released it, then we could have been doubting ourselves and feeling like the song isn’t good enough so I think timing and social media and good music go hand in hand.”
‘Flight Ya Hoseng’ showcases the duo’s creative collaborative nature and their ability to create music that transcends genre with their hybrid sound that effortlessly blends afro-pop, Amapiano, hip-hop, and R&B.
The song has been received positively by fans and critics alike, gaining traction and attention on various platforms. The unique blend of genres and the all-star lineup of featured artists has contributed to the success of the single.
In conclusion, Venom and Shishiliza have once again proven their talent and creativity with the release of ‘Flight Ya Hoseng.’ Their ability to seamlessly blend different genres and work with a diverse group of artists has set them apart in the music industry. As they continue to push boundaries and create innovative music, it is clear that their impact will be felt for years to come.
