SA: Lady Zamar back with Castles single

In a statement shared on her Instagram account, the artist expressed her excitement about the new release. “It’s the first of many in a journey that I have been sort of scared to undertake for a while now,” she said. “I present this song with love to everyone who loves and supports me with my heart open. I truly hope you love the song and you enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed making it. ‘Castles’ is so dear to my heart and I hope it becomes dear to yours too.”

Describing the essence of ‘Castles’, Lady Zamar said the song encapsulates the sentiment of encountering someone for the first time and not fully grasping the profound impact they will have on one’s life.

“You're just shocked at this human being. And for some reason when you look at them, every fantasy you’ve had about perfection and a beautiful life, it’s like this person embodies that.”

However, it's not just the lyrical content that promises to captivate listeners. Lady Zamar believes the project, which blends elements of South African urban music with subtle Afropop influences, has reconnected her with her musical roots, rekindling her passion for both writing and singing.

‘Castles’ not only builds on her distinctive sound that the South African music scene has come to adore, but also hints at a potential foray into the popular amapiano genre .
