Is Boity going to drop an amapiano song?

JAMAL GROOTBOOM jamald.grootboom@inl.co.za #KhandaShisa drops Friday.

LOCAL rapper Boity Thulo seems to be joining the list of hip hop artists jumping on the amapiano wave that’s taken over Mzansi.

Taking to Instagram Live last week, the Wuz Dat? hitmaker shared a taste of the new song that has yet to have a name.

In the video, Thulo is seen vibing to the track with several men in the background with presumably the hook of the song, “I don’ give a f***k” what you want”, is heard.

Fans weighed in and shared their thoughts on Thulo dropping an amapiano track.

The Six Plus Four rapper isn’t the only hip hop artist to jump on the amapiano train.

Reason also joined the amapiano craze and announced on social media that he is re-branding and will go under his new moniker, Sizwe Alakine.

He released his first amapiano song, Khanda Shisa, produced by one-half of the Scorpion Kings, DJ Maphorisa, last week.

The Ngiyak'thanda rapper got into a one-sided twar with Cassper Nyovest and wasn’t feeling the Destiny rapper responding to tweets regarding rappers jumping on the amapiano wave.

The Move For Me rapper got into a discussion with Twitter users about rappers jumping on the amapiano wave after him, since many people, including Reason, were very critical about him being one of the first rappers to move away from only making hip hop music.

He said: “The truth is I am the pulse. I am soo connected to the culture that I can’t set a foot wrong.”

Reason didn’t appreciate this discussion and respond to this and said: “What utter nonsense is this?

“Please man! This thing of saying things about people to get reactions from them is so 2015.

“Just make music or go fight Prince Kaybee and leave me alone man!
