LaCabra Features Nasty C & A-Reece on Anticipated Debut Album “Mr Bully.” The South African hip-hop scene is buzzing as rising artist LaCabra gears up for the release of his debut album, Mr Bully, scheduled for Friday, February 27, 2026.
Known professionally as Mxolisi Sibisi, the Durban artist, recognized by fans as uLaQhasha iNkosi yamaQweller, has earned accolades for his unique fusion of hip-hop, Zulu rap, African pop, and R&B. As a co-founder of the QWELLERS collective along with Lowfeye, LaCabra has garnered significant support in Durban and Johannesburg, receiving platinum accolades for his compelling delivery and authentic narratives.
Excitement for Mr Bully surged when LaCabra seemingly leaked the album’s tracklist, giving fans a sneak peek at the forthcoming release. The album will feature 14 tracks with collaborations from prominent figures in the industry, including Nasty C and A-Reece, alongside Sastii, Blue Pappi, Lowfeye, and Mnqobi Yazo.
This feature lineup indicates a significant crossover, merging established rap icons with the new talent rising from the QWELLERS collective and others. It positions Mr Bully as more than just a debut; it is a bold statement.
The singles pre-released, including “Sala Kanje” and “Ballon d’Or,” have already begun to solidify his presence in the music scene, achieving substantial streams on Spotify, where LaCabra has over 165,000 monthly listeners, as well as on Apple Music. The album will be released through Corner Store Records and is currently available for pre-save on major digital platforms.
At just 23 years old, LaCabra stands on the cusp of what many consider a pivotal moment in his career. Transitioning from local interest to wider recognition, his journey has been intentional and unmistakable. With the leak of the tracklist only amplifying the buzz, Mr Bully is expected to impact the local hip-hop scene significantly.
