Since bursting into the music scene with a viral freestyle video that captivated the hearts of audiences across social media, Sykes has been a whirlwind force, claiming stages nationwide with his undeniable talent and infectious energy. Now, marking a significant milestone in his career, Sykes has unveiled his inaugural EP, “Most Wanted,” in partnership with Nomcebo Zikode’s independent label, Emazulwini Productions, and EMPIRE.
The Durban-born “Sisestyleni Babies” hitmaker has already exhibited his prowess in delivering back-to-back number 1’s: As one of very few lead vocalists to ever top the charts outside of Amapiano this year, Sykes currently holds the #1 spot with his massive collaboration, “iPlan”, alongside Dlala Thukzin, which easily amassed over 1 million YouTube plays in less than 10 days, and has recently been certified double-platinum.
“Most Wanted” is set to captivate audiences as a seven-track EP that promises a rollercoaster ride of musical diversity and top-tier collaborations. Sykes personally curated a star-studded line up of features, ensuring a sonic elevation that guarantees non-stop dancing throughout the looming festive season.
“The replay value on ‘Most Wanted’ will live on forever,” remarked Sykes, teasing the enduring impact and immersive experience his EP delivers.
