The single features on AKA's upcoming album, 'Mass Country'. The 'Fela In Versace' rapper told the Sobering Podcast how he came up with the album's name. 

"I decided I wanna make a country album. I started on the journey and I started thinking what would the country be in a South African sense. So, it [would] probably be KZN, the midlands, Maskhandi, you know. As time moved on, I started to understand Mass Country to define how my music is super South African, super patriotic, and for everybody, it’s for the mass, it’s for the masses of the country - it is Mass Country.

"Then I started thinking what can I put in it, then I decided to let me bring my house sample here, let me bring the musicians here and start putting it all together," the 34-year-old said on the podcast.
