Saiintaugustine features Moch’a on his 3rd release of 2022, after releasing two successful records P.S.A and surpassing expectations. He reached 25 000 streams and over 2,500 monthly listeners for The Linkdin Freestyle which he released after PSA.
For Keeps was actually recorded on the same day as the linkdin Freestyle back in April 2022, which was produced by Mike Ludar, Moch’a was a spontaneous addition to the song. She was initially hanging out with saiintaugustine, then Mike Ludar suggested she add a bridge to the song, so she wrote it on the spot—and recorded it. The rest was history.
For Keeps is a song that was initially a slow RnB-Trapsoul song and ended up being an Afropop/Amapiano tune based on Saiintaugustine‘s actual relationship with his girlfriend, giving us a scope into their symbiosis.
At the same time not forgetting the sexy dance element brought in by Mike Ludar, and overall enjoying themselves in the music creation process, it was Mike Ludar’s idea to re-work the song from Rnb to Afropop.
