"That’s the thing with mega hits in music. Their success is irrational because art is subjective. Even when he made it I don’t think he felt this is my best song but it’s his biggest because it is simple, catchy, and in vernac. A triple threat in the SA market."

@happy_cheezy shared:

"That songgot me drunk last year. I never played it again!!!"

"Perhaps you should understand the age difference. What interests a 20-year-old would probably not make sense to a 40-year-old. I don't play Amapiano in my car and yet I go to the places where they play it and enjoy it for that particular moment."

@ziqubu40 reacted:

"I love that song Mamiya nguwe o wrongo Sana "

@NathiwestCele also said:

"As an artist yourself, you should remember that music is very subjective."

@Omphe91 also shared:

"It's a very nice song. He did an amazing job."

@laBucho added:

"I’m not budging on that song either. He has done better songs than this one I choose to pass. I don’t feel it."
