Journey
Mpho Selepe known by his stage moniker Mpho Spizzy is a South African artist who has rapidly ascended as a prominent figure within South Africa’s vibrant Amapiano scene. Representing the "Private School" sub-genre, his artistry is defined by a sophisticated meld of trap-influenced vocals and authentic Kasi storytelling that resonates deeply with the experiences of township youth.
His professional journey reached a turning point in 2020 when he was discovered by the influential Djy Jaivane and introduced by Muziqal Tone. This connection led to his signing with Simnandi Records, a label known for its pivotal role in shaping the modern Amapiano sound. Mpho quickly justified the hype with a string of successful singles, including "iCard", "El Chapo", and "Sesjimile", which together crossed the milestone of one million streams across digital platforms.
Mpho’s vocal style is celebrated for its versatility, primarily utilizing IsiZulu and English to deliver his message. By weaving local Soweto slang and Tsotsitaal into his lyrics, he maintains a strong cultural connection to his roots while his melodic, "trap-soul" delivery provides a polished appeal that reaches global audiences.
Currently, he remains a highly active and sought-after collaborator. He has lent his distinct voice to tracks alongside industry heavyweights like Tyler ICU, DBN Gogo, MDU aka TRP, and the duo Mellow & Sleazy. His most recent projects, such as the single "I'Movie" and his participation in major Amapiano playlists, continue to solidify his reputation as one of the most consistent vocalists in the genre today.
