Cape Town – Oct 15, 2025: Believing 2.0 is a new single off the upcoming UPZ 2.0 EP, where UPZ reimagines select tracks from his back catalog, infusing them with a fresh, contemporary twist to captivate a new generation of soulful and deep house fans.
‘Believing‘, featuring beloved vocalist Kafele, remains one of UPZ’s most iconic singles, regarded as a house classic in South African house music circles, amassing millions of streams across digital platforms boosted by a fantastic afro house infused mix by DJ Qness.
Kafele, currently based in New York City, has previously collaborated with South African based producers Ralf Gum, Sir LSG & Gaba Cannal.
UPZ: “Believing is one of the most loved song from my Back Catalogue. With Believing 2.0, we wanted to give the track and new deep house interpretation. I touched base with Kafele who was happy to jump on board with some additional backing vocals and a fantastic new trumpet and sax solos. We both loved the overall outcome and hope listeners will love this reworked version too.“
The reimagined Believing 2.0 slows the tempo to 116 BPM, delivering a soulful production overhaul. Kafele enhances the track with captivating new trumpet and saxophone solos, weaving through a nostalgic yet fresh musical journey, underscored by lyrics that evoke the longing for a lost love.
