Okmalumkoolkat kicks off the 11-track project iTheku eThekwini with eThekwini Intro. The South African musician takes a project-first approach, offering a thoughtful entrance point into the album’s atmosphere and concepts.
The eThekwini Intro is the first tune on the eleven-track album and is the fundamental piece in the 2026 release. This sets the tone for what is to come, welcoming the listener into the deeply layered experience that has been so painstakingly constructed throughout the project.
And because the song is set in 2026, it represents a period in time that works with the artist’s intention of creating a unified narrative through the album. The intro is a crucial part of setting up what the viewer may expect from the sequence happening in iTheku eThekwini.
