In case you thought Shebeshxt was down and out, he has just proven that he’s still on top.
The Limpopo rapper was recently interviewed on The Freshmen Podcast on 30 September 2025 to give insight into his collaboration with Zee Nxumalo, who was also part of the discussion and kitted in a Shebe-inspired look.
The musos' worlds collided in their new hit song Rato Laka, which saw them fuse their Sepedi and isiZulu backgrounds for a Lekompo hit.
"I can't explain it, but the song needed her."

While they usually perform in their native tongues, their ability to speak other languages was challenged when the musicians were tasked with translating English sentences into either isiZulu or Sepedi.
With Shebeshxt struggling to keep up with Zee, who managed to score points for successfully translating English to Sepedi, he ultimately lost and had to send the singer R40,000 as a prize, which he did.
The interview captures Zee's reaction to receiving the money, as well as a boastful Shebeshxt, who casually brushed off the massive transaction. After revealing the millions of rands in his bank account, it's evident that the R40,000 was mere pocket change for the controversial rapper.
"I want her to go and buy herself a car."
"I have to go and perform now, wrap it up!"
Meanwhile, Zee was overwhelmed and experiencing heart palpitations after the funds were cleared in her bank account.
