Song Review: Sekepe by Tsatsi Lady

South African rising star Tsatsi Lady delivers a powerful message in her latest single Sekepe, produced by Mr Ike under Charlies Records SA. As both the composer and performer, Tsatsi Lady showcases her ability to blend poetic storytelling with soulful vocals, proving she is not only an artist but also a voice of resilience and determination.
At its core, Sekepe (which means Ship) is more than a metaphor for life’s journey , it is a declaration of strength. Tsatsi Lady sings: “Don’t look at me and judge me quickly, and think that because I am young, I am also incapable. I am able to drive the ship from South Africa to Bangladesh, Uganda, Lesotho.” This powerful statement reflects her capability in life, her fearlessness, and her drive to achieve the impossible despite doubt or criticism.

The track empowers listeners to break free from judgment, believe in themselves, and keep navigating through the storms of life. With Mr Ike’s polished production and Executive Producer Charles Khoza’s guidance, the sound blends Afro-soul influences with rich African textures, grounding the song in both modern appeal and cultural authenticity.
Ultimately, Sekepe is a bold reminder that youth does not mean weakness it means potential. Tsatsi Lady uses her music to uplift, inspire, and prove that every challenge can be turned into a voyage of success.
