It is already dubbed the song for 2018 and since Raplyf has the summer covered, Kwesta steps in with his new single, Vur Vai. Vur Vai is a straight up Kwaito influenced hit song designed specifically for lazy summer days.
The beat was produced by Makwa who has handled countless hits for Raplyf and other artists. And he made a point to point out that this song is not a sample nor were there any features, it’s just Kwesta doing what he does best. He pulls through with his unmissable cadence and street appeal in the lyrics.
The reaction to the single has been largely positive
The reaction to the song has been nothing but positive with some noting at how quick the “hit single” caught fire. With others pointing out that they are already anticipating the visuals. Sheesh! But all of this is justified by the fact that Kwesta has served us fire hits and visuals since the summer of 2015. ‘Ngud and Spirit ring a bell to anyone?

Some others were worried about Kid X…
There has also been controversy with him dropping this new single exactly 4 days after Kid X released his long awaited and much anticipated debut album, Thank Da King. This reminded a lot of tweeps of the time that Kid X was still at Cash Time and got overlooked by K.O ultimately leading to him leaving the label.
Kid X back at Cashtime again , just wen he drop a dope album…Kwesta drop #VurVai … Shout out to ATM niggas for allowing each rapper to promote their album bengabangisani√ pic.twitter.com/Riq2GciFaT

I love Kwesta but I feel he is making the same mistakes KO and Cassper did…Kid X just released his first ever album why doesnt RapLyfe push the album before releasing VurVai ? Now his song has outshined the whole Kid X album #Vurvai pic.twitter.com/msBe3Pv3nH
