SUMMARY:Ndabezinhle Mntungwa — Ubude Abuphangwa
DESCRIPTION:Untitled Basement Presents: Ndabezinhle Mntungwa — Ubude Abuphangwa \n  \nSunday 18 October | Quicket R300 | Door R350 | Doors 17H00 | Show 19H00  \n  \nUntitled Basement presents Ndabezinhle Mntungwa\, a Durban-based singer\, songwriter and vocalist whose music sits at the intersection of soulful songwriting\, contemporary African music and deeply personal storytelling. \n  \nUbude Abuphangwa — “length cannot be rushed” — speaks to the journey of becoming. It is a sentiment that feels particularly fitting for an artist whose music has continued to evolve through experience\, collaboration and an increasingly assured voice of his own. \n  \nAt the centre of Mntungwa’s music is a voice that carries feeling. His songwriting explores love\, loss\, longing\, vulnerability and human connection\, transforming intimate experiences into songs that feel both deeply personal and universally familiar. Sung predominantly in isiZulu\, his music creates space for emotion to breathe — allowing stories to unfold at their own pace. \n  \nMntungwa first captured wider attention with his breakout single Emoyeni \, a poignant meditation on love\, loss and longing. The song introduced audiences to an artist with a distinctive ability to make the personal feel universal\, while establishing a musical language rooted in warmth\, soulful vocals and honest storytelling. \n  \nHis journey has since extended into some of South Africa’s most exciting contemporary collaborations. Emoyeni caught the attention of celebrated rapper Kwesta\, leading to Mntungwa’s appearance on Nyawo Zami\, featured on Kwesta’s album The Big Bro Theory. He has continued to build an impressive collaborative catalogue\, including Nomfundo Moh\, appearing on Ngizwele from her 2026 album Farm Julia\, as well as work with WAVEE\, Mxchael Blue and Kwazi Nsele. \n  \nBut Ubude Abuphangwa is ultimately about Mntungwa’s own journey. \n  \nIt is about allowing an artist\, a voice and a body of work to develop without forcing the destination. About understanding that some stories need time before they can be sung\, and that some voices become more powerful the longer they are allowed to grow. \n  \nFor his Untitled Basement performance\, Mntungwa brings these elements together in an intimate live setting — soulful music\, powerful vocals and emotionally rich storytelling. The performance will move through the different chapters of his musical journey\, from the songs that first introduced him to audiences to the collaborations and experiences that have shaped the artist he is becoming. \n  \nIn the intimacy of Untitled Basement\, the songs can be heard differently: not simply as recordings\, but as lived experiences carried by a voice\, a room and a moment. \n  \nUbude Abuphangwa is an invitation to slow down and listen — to an artist in motion\, to stories still unfolding\, and to a voice finding its full length in its own time. \n  \nSome journeys cannot be rushed. They have to be lived.

SUMMARY:The SN Project presents Open Rehearsal
DESCRIPTION:*THE SN PROJECT PRESENTS: AN OPEN REHEARSAL* \n  \n22 OCTOBER 2026 | DOORS 6PM | REHEARSAL 8PM | UNTITLED BASEMENT  \n  \nAfter selling out his Friday night performance\, The SN Project opens up the creative process for an intimate evening at Untitled Basement. \n  \nFor those who still want to experience the world of The SN Project\, this is an opportunity to step behind the performance and into the room where the music takes shape. \n  \nAn open rehearsal offers a rare glimpse into the process behind the work\, from experimentation and collaboration to the conversations and discoveries that happen between the artist and his bandmates as the material evolves. \n  \nRather than presenting a finished performance\, The SN Project invites audiences to witness the work in motion as ideas are explored\, arrangements take shape and the music develops in real time. \n  \nIt’s an intimate space for curiosity\, connection and a deeper understanding of the music\, offering audiences a chance to experience not only what The SN Project creates\, but how he creates it.
