Ten 3ple One Make Their Mark with Explosive Debut Single “Shiqi”

South Africa’s ever-evolving music landscape welcomes a bold new contender as Ten 3ple One officially step onto the scene with their debut single, “Shiqi.” Comprised of Rogers, Neville NP, and Njeba Baba, the trio arrives with a clear mission: to inject fresh energy, street authenticity, and a distinctive sonic identity into the game.

Released under Sony Music, “Shiqi” marks more than just a first drop, it’s a statement of intent. The track pulses with infectious rhythm and unapologetic flair, blending raw township influence with a polished, contemporary sound that positions the group as one to watch.

What makes this release even more compelling is the context around it. As newcomers, Ten 3ple One are building from the ground up, but early indicators suggest serious potential. According to Songstats, the trio is already gaining traction with 596 streams, and placements across 2 playlists, reaching an audience of over 173,000 listeners. Add to that 118 Shazams, and an impressive 17.5K views, and it’s clear that “Shiqi” is beginning to resonate beyond its initial drop.

There’s a certain hunger embedded in the record, something that often defines breakthrough acts. It’s that mix of ambition and authenticity that gives “Shiqi” its edge. The trio leans into their individuality while maintaining a cohesive group dynamic, creating a sound that feels both grounded and forward-thinking.

As debut releases go, “Shiqi” does exactly what it needs to: introduce, excite, and leave listeners curious about what’s next. With the backing of a major label and early momentum already building, Ten 3ple One are not just knocking on the door, they’re kicking it wide open.

The new single “Shiqi” is now available on all digital streaming platforms.
