South African hitmakers Cooper SA and Tyler ICU bring together Al Xapo, Ceeka RSA, Khalil Harrison, and Femme Fatale Selection for “International,” a standout cut from their joint EP “One Day in Tembisa.”
The credits alone tell you how this project was built. Cooper SA and Tyler ICU have spent 2026 stacking one collaborative record after another – “Weekend” with Thama Tee and Tiiger, “Khoma Lah” with LeeMcKrazy, “Webaba Geza” with Scotts Maphuma. So “International” is not an isolated feature. It is part of a larger pattern of two producers who consistently trust ensemble energy over solo spotlight.
That trust shows in how the record comes together. Al Xapo and Khalil Harrison have both worked repeatedly with this circle of Amapiano artists, and Ceeka RSA’s presence adds the same vocal chemistry that has powered other Cooper SA collaborations throughout the year. Femme Fatale Selection rounds out the lineup, giving the track another texture without crowding an already packed feature list.
What stands out about “International” within “One Day in Tembisa” is the title itself. It signals ambition beyond the local scene, and pairing that reach with a title-track energy from within an EP built entirely on collaboration fits the current direction of South African Amapiano – genre-defining not through one big name, but through networks of artists building together.
