In 2020, Mr Thela & Mshayi joined forces to release the second installment of Make Cape Town Great Again, which advocated for a society that champions the Cape Town entertainment scene in a wider sense and is a continuation of the first installment for the project. ‘My Mother’s Prayer Vocal Mix’, featuring Peace, forms part of Make Cape Town Great Again 2.0.
After 4 years, Mshayi & Mr Thela’s ‘My Mother’s Prayer Vocal Mix’, featuring Peace, has reached 2 Million plays on Youtube. 2020- 22 era is often lauded as the greatest era for Capetonians, Mshayi & Thela as it saw Mr Thela & Mshayi making an entrance at South African Music Awards with their collaborative project ‘Make Cape Town Great Again 2.0’ while in pursuit for milestones as it reached Platinum Status. In such an unpleasant era as Covid 19 curbed artists' movement and led to imminent closure of events. However, Mr Thela & Mshayi rose above adversity as they made an appearance on Channel O, Lockdown House Party which was curated by DJ PH & Shimza. When the project came out, GQ South Africa & Okay Africa permitted the pair to delve into what led them to bring ‘Make Cape Town Great Again 2.0’ to life and the inspiration behind it. “The Make Cape Town Great Again phrase is driven by how Cape Town lost its reverence in so many ways and we want to bring that back, and currently music and entertainment is the only way we know how to.
We are fighting to get our city into the mainstream lines alongside JHB & DBN for people to see what Cape Town has to offer in so many ways. There’s so much talent that’s not getting the necessary recognition nationally in Cape Town and we are working towards exposing that talent.” Said Mshayi in their interview with GQ South Africa.
Mr Thela further touched on advocating for a society that champions the Cape Town entertainment scene in a wider sense through the ‘Make Cape Town Great Again’ phrase. “On our EP we have featured one of SHAYA Records artist’s T Man and a well-known Gospel artist Betusile as we wanted to diversify our offerings not only to the party scene but to everyone who loves and listens to music whether it being in the car, at home or on radio.” Said the renowned producer and DJ in their interview with GQ South Africa.
Congratulations are in order for Mshayi & Mr Thela as their collaborative project continues to aim for the stars.
