Fans received a pleasant surprise when the legendary Soul and house music duo Liquideep announced its reunion.

They took to their Instagram page on 25 September 2025 to share the news with a video of the pair's subtle announcement of their reunion while reacting to "rumours" of their split:

"They say that we're liquidated, bro. So, does that mean that now we're rehydrated?"

The news generated thousands of reactions from long-time fans and critics, including radio personality Sizwe Dhlomo.

Known for his controversial opinions, the Kaya 959 presenter feared that the duo and its sound might not resonate with new music listeners or the current trends:

Formed in 2007 by vocalist Ziyon and Ryzor, the producer, the group has released seven albums between 2008 and 2013, including their multi-platinum-selling album Fabrics of the Heart in 2010.

They announced their split in 2014, after which both members began to focus on their individual careers, with Ziyon collaborating with stars like Prince Kaybee. However, it appears the pair is ready to pick up where they left off.

News of the BBM hitmakers' reunion was as sudden as their break up. While some, like Sizwe, expressed scepticism, many loyal fans are still excited about the reunion.

Here's the video of Liquideep announcing their reunion:

"Honestly, they could just hum their old songs and I’d still buy tickets. Kirstenbosch or promoters, I don't know, make it happen."

MtibzaOTrain was excited:

"Yes, please! Music is not sports. And I hate how in South Africa we are ageist to our own, but still look forward to Jay-Z's album, listening to Nas' new stuff. Liquideep are back, baby, and so are Sade! We will be feasting soon, as music lovers, and I'm here for it."
