An Amapiano journey of resilience, rebirth, and rhythm
In a moment that solidifies his position as one of Amapiano’s most enduring voices, DJ and producer Bandros returns with his fourth studio album, Never Stop The Music, a heartfelt body of work that transforms struggle into strength. Released today, 17 October 2025, the project captures not just his sonic evolution, but also the spirit of perseverance that has defined his journey.
Following the success of Messaigh, Brenda, and Tebogo, Bandros enters a new chapter, one marked by personal reflection and emotional depth. The title Never Stop The Musiccarries both literal and symbolic weight. Born out of moments where he almost walked away from his craft, the phrase became a mantra for resilience, a reminder that music, like life, must continue through every high and low.
“There were moments where the weight of personal and professional pressure was so heavy that I genuinely felt like walking away from music,” Bandros shares. “But the message came to me clearly: Never Stop The Music. This album is not just for me, it’s a message of solidarity to everyone out there battling their own struggles. Whether it’s your job, your art, or your life, don’t stop. Perseverance is what creates success.”
Known for his melodic storytelling, distinct Deep House and Amapiano sound, Bandros continues to evolve while staying rooted in authenticity. His previous releases have cemented his influence in the genre, with his Brenda album’s breakout single “Nguwe” featuring Zee Nxumalo still enjoying major traction across streaming platforms and dancefloors nationwide.
With Never Stop The Music, Bandros takes his audience deeper, blending soulful piano progressions with uplifting rhythms and heartfelt messages. The album features a powerhouse line-up of collaborators, including some of the biggest and most exciting names in the game, a reflection of both his artistry and his respected place within South Africa’s thriving music landscape.
Never Stop The Music is a statement of faith, a sonic testimony that even in the face of adversity, creativity finds a way to rise. Bandros has turned his pain into purpose, and in doing so, crafted a soundtrack for anyone who’s ever needed a reminder to keep going.
