South African Amapiano duo TxC gives “Nakupenda – I Love You” yet another remix life, this time handing the record over to DJ Neptune and LilGeeBeatz
The fact that “Nakupenda” has now received two major remix treatments tells you everything about how much the original record resonated. First Vigro Deep reimagined it from a South African Amapiano angle. Now DJ Neptune and LilGeeBeatz bring a distinctly Nigerian production perspective to the same song — and the difference in approach between the two remixes is exactly what makes both worth hearing on their own terms.
DJ Neptune has been one of Nigeria’s most consistent crossover producers for years. His ability to pull different genres and different markets into the same room without losing the identity of the original is well documented across his catalogue. Records like “Nobody” with Joeboy and Mr Eazi showed a producer who understands how to build bridges between sounds without forcing anything. That same instinct runs through his approach here alongside LilGeeBeatz.
Davido and Zlatan returning for a second remix of the same record shows genuine investment in the “Nakupenda” wave rather than just a one-off appearance. They clearly believe in the song’s cross-border potential — and their combined presence gives both remixes a connective thread that ties the whole campaign together.
Scotts Maphuma, Shoday, and Al Xapo hold their corners across this version just as confidently as they did on the Vigro Deep remix. Stream the DJ Neptune and LilGeeBeatz Remix of “Nakupenda – I Love You” and feel how a different production hand completely changes the energy of the same song.
