Aymos Shares the Stories That Shaped 'Impilo'

Like many great artists, Aymos' musical journey began in church. From a young age, his voice has been a gift to the world, and he made waves with his breakout hit Emcimbini. But Aymos didn’t stop there—he kept pushing forward, collaborating with some of the biggest names in the industry. Recently, he sat down with Briefly News to talk about his latest masterpiece, Impilo, and what he hopes fans will take away from it.

"I was raised in a Christian family, attending church almost every day. That foundation has shaped who I am and what I stand for. It’s also reflected in my music and the messages I share with the world."

But life hasn’t always been smooth sailing for Aymos. He acknowledged the challenges he’s faced and how they’ve influenced his art:

"Life is complicated, and no one has all the answers. Making this album was a journey in itself—it wasn’t easy. But through it all, I’ve learned so much about myself and my music."

How Aymos Picked the Perfect Collaborators

For Impilo, Aymos teamed up with several artists, each chosen carefully to match the themes of the songs. He explained that the decision wasn’t random—it was all about the message and the direction of each track.

"When it came to collaborations, I looked at the lyrics and the vibe of each song. Some needed a more mature artist, while others called for a commercial touch. For example, I worked with Reese Madlisa because her style fits perfectly with certain tracks. And for '10,000 Yey'nkomo,' I knew Sha Sha was the right choice. She’s at a stage in her life where she can relate to the theme of amalobolo."

Aymos Reflects on His Growth as an Artist

Despite being relatively new to the industry, Aymos has already left an indelible mark with hits like Amabhoza. Looking back, he credits his growth to his current team, who have helped him evolve as an artist. He said:

"In the past two years, I’ve grown so much as an artist. I’ve learned to understand my brand and what I stand for. My team has been instrumental in this journey. Together, we’ve achieved incredible things, and I’m excited to see where this path takes me."

Aymos Reveals His Favorite Tracks and What Fans Can Expect

When asked about his favorite songs from the album, Aymos shared that a few tracks stand out to him. He believes these songs will resonate deeply with listeners. He said:

"Some standout tracks include '10K' featuring Sha Sha, Smthing Soweto, and Mas Musiq. There’s also 'Vumile' and the opening track, 'Sanibonani.' These songs carry messages that I think will touch a lot of hearts."

Aymos also extended an invitation to fans to join him for the album launch on November 9 at Emperor's Palace in Johannesburg. He said:

"This is a moment I’ve been working toward for years. I’d love for everyone to come out and celebrate with me. It’s going to be an unforgettable night with an incredible lineup. Don’t miss it!"
