For many in Mzansi and beyond, 2025 was a year marked by dance floors full of amapiano heat and heated debates about creative direction.

The Pretoria-born producer surprised followers by previewing a fresh tune on social media that sounds very different from the amapiano anthems he has long been celebrated for.
