Batuk’s lead vocalist Manteiga fuses Kaapse slang, English and Portuguese to formulate her luminous weekend party raps atop a groove reminiscent of mid-‘90s kwaito-meets-bubble-gum-pop and ‘80s style on a high-fashion runway. On their Teka Records EP Move!, producer Spoek Mathambo intercedes, looking every bit the modern day ballie while reminiscing about how he’s been bussin’ that dip since he was 14. Styled by Gabrielle Kannemeyer and Yonela Makoba, with quantum leap choreography by Nkemiseng Khena and Robin-Lee Erasmus, Batuk sets gallant footwork against nostalgic backdrops, weekend excess, and sunsets by the beach.
