Review: The YMR Experience’s Long-Delayed "Swazi Wave" Reminds Us Why They One of the Swaziland Greats It’s an album full of fire and passion from a band that don’t have anything left to prove. It’s taken Swaziland band “The YMR Experience” longer than most to create their moment. The band has been on the indie circuit for almost a decade and was once touted as future stars. When fame didn’t come, they made their own seat at the table, infamously selling beats for $500 each and getting Princess Sikhanyiso Dlamini to endorse them by purchasing 15 of their beats.  They parlayed their music successes into local business ventures—including a publishing company and a “smart production studio”.  Swazi Wave, their first album is more than six years in the making. It is formally their “debut album”. As statements go, "Swazi Wave" is more of a remembrance than a celebration.  Tracklist 1. Last Night 2. Amanga 3. Can’t Hold You Back 4.
