The latter was released to promote their show of the same name which ended up getting cancelled due to the national lockdown put in place by the SA government to curb the spread of the coronavirus.</p><p>Kabza De Small is one of the many artists that Maphorisa has taken under his wing through his <strong>BlaqBoy Music</strong> imprint. The label constantly releases albums, EPs and singles almost every week, such that it's impossible to keep up.</p><p>Stream <em>Once Upon a Time in Lockdow</em>n on <a href="https://music.apple.com/za/album/once-upon-a-time-in-lockdown/1508274718" target="_blank">Apple Music</a> and <a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/1g4qbl8N3KkTAILMcgS86b?si=AQQggknGTOOmZVGIH4kiwA" target="_blank">Spotify</a>.</p>
