DJ Maphorisa and Xduppy link up with Focalistic, Optimist Music ZA and Madumane on the fresh Amapiano cut “Ma Wake Up.”
The record lands as the final track on The Lawd’s Selection Vol. 1. The production credits go to Themba Sekowe, better known as DJ Maphorisa, and Gomolemo Joy Gumede, the man behind Xduppy. Both of them built the beat around energetic Sgija rhythms and punchy log drums. Lively vocal turns from the featured acts carry the rest.
It arrives through New Money Gang Records and Sony Music Entertainment Africa. The song also extends the duo’s working relationship with Pretoria-based Amapiano talents. Earlier project collaborations include “Sorry Batswadi Baka” and “Saiketsa Bitire,” so this one continues a pattern rather than starting something new.
At six minutes and thirty-five seconds, the track gives the EP a long, energetic send-off. Four voices share the space, and the Sgija backbone keeps things moving without much let-up. It makes sense as a closer because the whole project leans on that same sound.
