It isn’t all love stories that will be blooming this Valentine’s season, as versatile DJ and producer Shaun365 delivers a raw and emotionally charged reflection on relationship betrayal in his new single, “Angisabuyi,” featuring the soulful vocals and poetic presence of Msizi Soul.
Inspired by a true story, Angisabuyi (meaning “I’m not coming back”) was born from the real-life experience of a close friend who fell in love, got engaged, and believed he had found his forever, only to later discover infidelity while he was away at work. Instead of staying in a relationship that had already betrayed him, he chose to walk away for good. That painful decision became the emotional foundation of the song.

“I realized this wasn’t just one story,” says Shaun365. “So many people, men and women, are going through this. Loving honestly, trusting fully, and then being hurt. This song is for anyone who’s ever had to choose themselves over staying in a broken love.”
Written and produced by Shaun365, the song blends Afro-fusion textures with Afro-soul emotion and modern African soundscapes, creating a deeply intimate yet universal record. Msizi Soul, a gifted vocalist and poet from Mpumalanga, adds a raw vulnerability that turns the song into a lived emotional experience rather than just a performance.
At the heart of Angisabuyi are lyrics that cut through the silence many heartbreak stories live in, exposing betrayal, denial, and emotional distance with painful honesty:
“bathi uhamba nabafana, ubusuku ne mini”
(They say you’re out with men day and night)
“uthi abangani bakho, kusukela nini”
(You’re saying it’s your friends — since when?)
“wathembisa uzoziphatha kahle, ngikulanda kini”
(You promised you’d carry yourself well when I fetched you from your home)
“manje usiyinyoni yaseb’suku, aw kodwa yini”
(Now you’re a bird in the night sky, why, why?)
These lines capture the slow unraveling of trust, the confusion of betrayal, and the quiet devastation of realizing the person you loved is no longer who you thought they were.
Shaun365’s sound is rooted in Afro-fusion, shaped by his versatility as a DJ and producer who experiments across afro house, afro soul, and afrobeats, allowing his music to move seamlessly between rhythm, emotion, and storytelling.
Originally from eDwaleni in Kabokweni, Mpumalanga, Shaun365’s journey began in a small village before moving to Johannesburg to pursue his studies. Music has always been more than a passion it has been a calling, a purpose, and a voice.
With previous releases such as “Shwele” and “Genesis” performing well on platforms like YouTube and Spotify, Shaun365 has steadily built a reputation as an artist who balances sonic quality with emotional depth.
Drawing inspiration from South African icons like Sjava, Black Coffee, DJ Fresh, and Euphonik, he aspires to collaborate with artists such as Sjava, Dlala Thukzin, Blaq Diamond, and Zonke, and internationally with JP Cooper and Pharrell Williams.
Looking ahead, Shaun365 is entering a new creative era filled with collaborations, upcoming projects, and long-form bodies of work — including EPs and potentially a full-length album.
