Saudi Sets The Tone For ‘Japan Four’ Album With Empowering Message To South Africans. As anticipation builds for the release of his long-awaited album Japan Four, South African rapper Saudi has ignited conversation with a powerful and poetic message to his fans, encouraging self-belief and individuality ahead of what promises to be one of his most defining musical chapters.
In a cryptic yet commanding social media post, the “Dark Dindy” hitmaker urged fans not to imitate others, but instead to fully embrace their own uniqueness: “Don’t be like someone else. Be a bully my friend, take advantage. There are too many advantages that come with being you. You won’t find these gifts in someone else. South African you are great.”
The statement, both motivational and unapologetically bold, serves as a rallying cry not just for his fans but for a generation of creatives striving to be seen and heard. Saudi’s call to “be a bully” isn’t about aggression, but about tenacity — the kind of audacious self-confidence required to thrive in a competitive industry and world.
The message was accompanied by a striking teaser for Japan Four, with Saudi declaring: “JAPAN FOUR: It will be as if it’s for the last time.”
Known for his signature mix of street wisdom, raw emotion, and international flair, Saudi has long been regarded as one of SA hip hop’s most enigmatic voices. With Japan Four, he seems ready to leave it all on the table — for the culture, for his fans, and perhaps, for himself.
