Tikae Maestro Redefines Worship with “Dwell” — A Soulful Fusion of Amapiano, Scripture, and Spirit

Award-winning South African producer and songwriter TK Mabelane, widely known as Tikae Maestro, has once again raised the bar for gospel artistry with his latest single “Dwell” featuring the dynamic Kingdmusic. Inspired by Psalm 27:4, the track blends the rhythm of Amapiano and Afrobeat with a profound message of devotion — a musical invitation to remain in the presence of God. Drawing from his upbringing as a pastor’s son, Tikae channels both nostalgia and spiritual intimacy into the song, crafting a sound that radiates warmth and worship while staying true to his African roots. For him, “Dwell” isn’t just a melody — it’s a movement, one that transforms scripture into song and turns worship into a lived, rhythmic experience.

For Tikae Maestro, this release represents the evolution of a visionary who has long bridged the sacred and the soulful. His decade-long impact with the award-winning collective We Will Worship redefined African praise music, earning him numerous accolades, including a SAMA Award. His 2021 solo debut, Tribe Rua Vol. 1, and his hit “Desert Song” have since cemented his place as a master of blending theological depth with musical innovation. Now based in Boston, Tikae continues to shape global worship culture as Worship Arts Director at Aletheia Church, where he also helmed the acclaimed Son of Man project earlier this year.

With “Dwell,” Tikae Maestro and Kingdmusic breathe new life into the global Christian music scene — one dance step and one lyric at a time. The song reimagines the modern worship experience, proving that spirituality can groove, and that holiness and rhythm can harmonize. Through his craft, Tikae reminds believers that God’s presence is not confined to church walls — it’s in every beat, every breath, and every soul that dares to dwell.
