South African DJ and producer Uncle Waffles links up with Royal MusiQ and Shoes Meister on a raw, street-driven Amapiano record titled “Too Cool” from the “4 Da Streets!” project.
Opening a project with this much pounding energy was a bold choice, but it sets the tone for everything that follows on “4 Da Streets!” instantly. Released May 8 through Encore Recordings, the track throws you straight into a dense, restless soundscape that does not ease you in at all.
Pounding kicks, bongos, metallic shakers, and rolling percussion patterns collide with wailing sirens and grunted male vocal chants, creating a groove that feels chaotic but somehow stays tightly controlled throughout.
Shoes Meister’s contribution adds texture rather than melody – this is not a record chasing a catchy hook. Instead, deep 808 sub bass and sharp snare hits carry the weight while synth stabs punctuate rather than lead.
If you want Amapiano that hits hard and refuses to play it safe, “Too Cool” earns its spot as the project’s opener. Press play and let the rhythm take over from there.
