“Abalele,” a collaborative song by Kabza De Small, DJ Maphorisa and Ami Faku, was one of the big hits of 2021, and it’s still as appealing as can be. So it’s not surprising that another musician should choose to retouch it.
Welcome to the world of “Abalele Ft. Ami Faku (KingTouch’s Woke Mix).” Hile the latest jam might not bear the thunder of the original, it’s yet a splendid number that deserves a place on a playlist.
Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa, the two lead singers of the song recently retouched, are collectively known as Scorpion Kings in reference to their album of the same title. And because they have made great contributions to South Africa’s amapiano orbit, they’re also known as the Piano Kings.
Listening to the original “Abalele” tune, it’s near impossible to doubt that they have earned their stripes as musicians. Ami Faku, too.
More than that, we’re sure that the Scorpion Kings, as well as Ami Faku, should love the number their joint tune has spawned. This high-energy drop strikes us as a good start to the New Year. So go ahead and embrace it for all it’s worth. Let the music begin, peeps. No qualms.
