this is Azi in war mode. The freestyle shows he’s done waiting on chances and is ready to take them by force. It's clear he’s moving different now
After being quiet for a while, Azi SA is finally back — and his new track “Uchuku Freestyle” shows he hasn’t lost a step. Known for his smooth delivery and sharp bars, Azi comes in strong with a freestyle that feels like a serious comeback.
The last time many people heard from Azi was during his collab project Bhuti and the Beast with AV Raincandy. That project showed a more creative and experimental side of him. But this time, Azi returns to basics: just bars, no hook, no features — just pure hip-hop energy.

The title “Uchuku” comes from Xhosa, and as producer Isaac Wilson explains, it means “starting a problem unprovoked.” It describes someone who creates drama or tension without a reason — and in the context of this track, it feels like Azi is responding to those kinds of people. Whether it’s industry politics, doubters, or silent shade — he’s addressing it all with skill and style.
This freestyle isn’t about pain or vulnerability. It’s about flexing. Azi is sharp, composed, and unapologetic. He’s not explaining — he’s executing. It's a statement to everyone who’s been quiet while he’s been quiet: he sees you, and now he's moving different..
What makes this release even more exciting is the announcement Azi made: starting April 18th, 2025, he’ll be dropping new music every two weeks. That means fans can expect a steady stream of songs as he finds his rhythm again.
While “Uchuku Freestyle” doesn’t talk about his personal struggles, Azi did share on social media that he’s been through a lot over the past few years — from losses to moments of self-doubt. He also gave credit to friends like @yahkeem.mavulakuvaliwe, @eclives.co.za, and @isaacwlsnza for pushing him to keep going. And of course, AV Raincandy played a big part in his return, even jokingly “holding him at gunpoint” to get him to release solo music again.
With unforgettable tracks like “My Year” and “MIA” already in his catalogue, Uchuku Freestyle feels like the start of a new chapter. Azi SA is back, and if this is the energy he’s starting with, we can’t wait to see what’s next.
Stream “Uchuku Freestyle” now on all major platforms.
