When you press play on Devil Himself’s latest single, Izinsuku Zenjabulo, you hear more than just a song. You hear a life story—one that begins in the quiet hills of Hlokozi, winds its way through the streets of Durban, and finds its expression in a voice that refuses to be silenced.


Growing up in Hlokozi, Devil Himself was no stranger to hardship. Like many young dreamers from rural South Africa, he faced the weight of limited opportunities and the push-and-pull of a world that didn’t always have space for ambition. But music was there—an outlet, a sanctuary, and a compass pointing him toward something greater.


That compass eventually led him to Durban, a city alive with culture and creativity but shadowed by its own struggles. Navigating life in the ghettos meant dealing with violence, poverty, and the daily grind of survival. For Devil Himself, music became more than just a passion—it became a lifeline. Through every verse and every melody, he carved a path away from chaos and toward purpose.


Izinsuku Zenjabulo (which translates to Days of Happiness) captures that journey. The single is a raw meditation on heartbreak and regret, the kind of song that resonates with anyone who has ever wished to turn back time and relive moments of love that slipped away. Yet, beneath the melancholy lies a glimmer of hope—the belief that true love still exists, even in a world where relationships often fall apart.


Behind this release is No Love Creative Entertainment, an up-and-coming independent label making waves by doing things differently. Far from chasing trends, the label is building a reputation as a sleeping giant, pushing out music with purpose and artists who remain true to their roots. Devil Himself embodies that ethos perfectly: authentic, unfiltered, and driven by lived experience.


“Iznsuku Zenjabulo is not just my story—it’s everyone’s story,” Devil Himself says. “We’ve all held on to memories of love, and we’ve all learned the pain of losing it. But even in the hurt, there’s hope.”


As No Love Creative Entertainment continues to grow its footprint in the industry, artists like Devil Himself remind us why music matters. It’s not just about charts or streams—it’s about connection, storytelling, and the courage to bare your soul.


Stream Izinsuku Zenjabulo now on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and all major platforms—and step into the world of an artist who’s turning struggle into sound and heartbreak into legacy.
