Amapiano star Young Stunna brings in Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa on a smooth record titled “Adiwele.” It comes from his debut album, “Notumato.”
Young Stunna grew up in Daveyton, and his fans gave him that name. Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa form Scorpion Kings, so the feature list carries weight. Because of that, this record feels like a proper South African Amapiano meeting.
The log drums roll deep, and the piano keys glide on top. At close to eight minutes, the album cut gives the groove time to breathe. Meanwhile, the bassline stays patient, so the dance floor can settle in.
Young Stunna rides the beat with his smooth, melodic delivery. He holds the writing credit too, so the words sound like his own. As a result, the record feels relaxed but confident.
Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa bring their Scorpion Kings sound, and it fits Young Stunna’s voice well. Besides, the mood runs smooth and slow rolling, so the late night crowd will love it.
This one works because each artist stays in their lane. Although the album cut is long, the groove never drags.
