South Africa’s latest singing sensation, Callum Stoltz, took the music industry by storm with his debut single, THE ONE THAT I LOVE, written by the artist himself.
Now the youngster is back in the spotlight with the release of an epic music video of this catchy song.
Directed by the visionary videographer and musician Gerduan Kemp, known for his prowess in storytelling through music videos, the video takes viewers on a journey into the heart of an underground party where teens and young adults secretly meet to have a good time and dance the night away.
Shot in a clandestine setting – a functional shopfitting workshop in Pretoria – the video’s industrial ambiance adds a gritty authenticity to this secretive affair.
Reflecting on the creative process, Stoltz shares: “We wanted to capture the essence of being young and carefree, as well as the thrill of forbidden fun. Gerduan, who was assisted by fellow musician Abel Knobel, and I brainstormed ideas, and the concept evolved organically from there. The venue, with its secretive allure, became integral to the narrative we wanted to convey.”
The video’s uniqueness lies in its casting – featuring Callum’s closest friends and acquaintances, each bringing their vibrant energy to the screen. “What makes it special is that everyone in the video is someone I know or a friend of a friend,” he explains. “It was more than just a shoot; it was a gathering of friends coming together to create something unforgettable.”

Callum (18) was born in Cape Town in 2005 but has been living in Centurion since 2007. He started singing when he was five and further honed his musical skills by participating in the primary school choir and starting with vocal lessons when he was 12.
His plans for the rest of the year include various exciting projects like another love song and more live performances.
With its infectious rhythm and captivating visuals, THE ONE THAT I LOVE’s music video promises to be an unforgettable cinematic experience, resonating with audiences of all ages.
“I just hope that everyone enjoys the video as much as I enjoyed making it! It is about love, and it can appeal to anyone, young and old, here in South Africa or anywhere in the world,” he concludes.
The single is available on all digital streaming platforms.
