LISTEN: Summer feels with Mi Casa and German duo
Summer is not over yet, fam! One of our favourite bands, Mi Casa, have brand new music and Stacey and J Sbu managed to catch up with the team.
Mi Casa kick straight back after the huge success of their smash hit Mamela with their first international collab since signing their international record deal with Afroforce1 Records/Universal Music Group.

The band has teamed up with Berlin-based production duo YouNotUs to bring us the 5th official single from the ‘We Made It’ album, the long-awaited tribute to living well - Chucks.
Mi Casa frontman J’Something has always held a special place in his heart for the track: “It’s about making the most of every single moment because the future is not a given – all we have is right now and that time needs to be lived."
Having the opportunity to collaborate with international, multi-platinum EDM front-runners YouNotUs is an example of where Mi Casa’s musical ambition has seen them reach.
Getting the YouNotUs touch to Chucks has completely transformed it and we cannot wait to see how it lifts people’s spirits and hopefully it will land on fertile soil.
So, how did the collaboration happen under lockdown?
Luckily for technology, the two acts were able to collaborate completely remotely during lockdown and working with the Mi Casa track brought out all the summer feelings in the Berlin-based act.
While Chucks
is a springtime release in Europe, it catches the tail end of summer in SA,
dragging out some good times as life starts to return to normal in venues and
on dancefloors around the country.
Chucks will be released in Europe, South Africa, and parts of the African continent on the 26th of March, with the video due for release two weeks later. YouNotUs will be flying out to shoot the video alongside Mi Casa in Namibia.
Stacey and J Sbu managed to connect with J'Something earlier today to chat more about the song.
You can download 'Chucks' on all digital platforms.
