A-Reece & DJ Clen Drop Surprise Collaborative Project ‘HOW DO YOU LOVE ME NOW?’ South African hip-hop has received an unexpected Friday morning treat as A-Reece and DJ Clen join forces for a surprise collaborative album titled HOW DO YOU LOVE ME NOW ?, released on Friday, 13 November.

The 10-track project arrived without an extensive promotional campaign, with A-Reece taking to social media to announce its arrival. Keeping the message short and straight to the point, the Pretoria-born rapper wrote: “HOW DO YOU LOVE ME NOW ?”
A collaborative album by @DjClenSA & A-Reece. OUT NOW FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT. Happy Friday The 13TH.
Running for just over 27 minutes, the album brings together two artists whose creative relationship has developed over several years. A-Reece has previously played an important role in DJ Clen’s releases, serving as executive producer on projects such as Viral and Too Viral. Their latest offering, however, sees the two step into the spotlight together, sharing the billing on an entire body of work.
The project features 10 tracks, with A-Reece appearing throughout alongside a carefully selected group of collaborators from South Africa’s hip-hop scene. Among the guest appearances are Jay Jody, Nadia Nakai, Loatinover Pounds, Luna Florentino, Kid Kaydence, Kwazi M and Lowfeye, adding different voices and creative flavours to the record.
The tracklist opens with ‘REALLY A LOT’ before moving into ‘YAMAL’, featuring Kid Kaydence, and ‘MENACE’, which brings Loatinover Pounds into the mix. Other collaborations include ‘4EVA’ with Lowfeye, ‘datpiffdotcom’ featuring Jay Jody and Luna Florentino, and ‘IZ U WIMME?’, which reunites the two artists with both collaborators.
The album also makes room for a lighter moment with ‘PARTYYYYYYYYYY (interlude)’, featuring Kwazi M, before moving into ‘DRIVE ME CRAZY’. Kwazi M returns on ‘FIND MY WAY’, while Nadia Nakai makes an appearance on the closing track, ‘SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT’.
Beyond the music, the surprise release adds another interesting chapter to A-Reece’s unpredictable approach to releasing music. Rather than building anticipation through a lengthy rollout, the rapper and DJ Clen have allowed the music to do the talking, giving listeners an entire collaborative project to explore without much warning.
For DJ Clen, the release further strengthens his working relationship with one of Pretoria’s most recognised lyrical voices, while giving listeners a closer look at what the two can create when their individual talents meet on the same project.
With its impressive guest list and 10-track offering, HOW DO YOU LOVE ME NOW ? gives South African hip-hop something fresh to get into this Friday.
The collaborative album is available now on all major streaming platforms.
