Rain by Charles Webster, EMAMKAY & Bokang Rematlapeng

For the fourth single drop from his forthcoming full-length album "From The Hill," Charles Webster taps into a different frequency, teaming up with boundary-pushing producer EMAMKAY, and the addition of the unmistakable voice of Bokang Ramatlapeng for the downtempo jazz-tinged cut titled "Rain."

EMAMKAY's known for his blend of conscious hip-hop, soul, jazz, and leftfield electronica - a sound that's been described as more spirit than genre. Add Bokang's vocal soul, and you get a track that drips with feeling yet never loses its edge. "Rain" is meditative, full of space and restraint, but still bold in its execution. Webster keeps it grounded while letting the experiment breathe in a meeting point between SA's new soul wave and a UK house legend who knows when to step back and let the moment speak.

For "From The Hill," Allan Nicoll, aka Kid Fonque, and Charles Webster brought together the cream of the South African deep house scene for a unique album. Significantly, the project was recorded at Flame Studios, built inside a former prison which used to house Nelson Mandela himself at one point during Apartheid, and located at Constitution Hill in South Africa, where the country's constitution was written once Apartheid was ended. Accompanied by a behind-the-scenes documentary film, the album arrives on September 26th, 2025.
