South Africa-based rapper Mlue Jay has teamed up with RayKaz for their new track, Can't Get, now available on all digital platforms. This high-energy trap/rap anthem is a confident celebration of originality, lyrical dominance, and street-smart swagger, all delivered in a blend of Zulu, English, and township slang.
