South Africans React to ‘Tshwala Bam Remix’ Featuring Burna Boy: “What an Unnecessary Remix”

• Mzansi weighed in on the now-trending Tshwala Bam Remix featuring Burna Boy
• The Nigerian superstar jumped on the viral hit and gave it the Burna flavour, but it seems Mzansi isn't feeling it
• One of the song's producers spoke to Briefly News about how they ended up working with Burna Boy

Burna Boy didn't let the Tshwala Bam craze fade without giving it a spin. However, the Nigerian superstar didn't join the viral dance challenge; instead, he hopped on the song for a remix, and Mzansi had much to say about it.

Speaking to Briefly News, TitoM told the publication how the track came about:

"We were on tour in Nigeria, and it happened that he [Burna Boy] was there too. Long story short, we went to the studio, and then it happened!"

While keeping most of the original production, the Last Last hitmaker delivered an opening verse and left Mzansi utterly underwhelmed:

Kay_Machili said:

"Some songs don't need to be remixed. I would understand if they wanted to reach a broader market, but the original has already reached the international market. This remix sucks, and what the hell is Burna Boy saying?"

thusga advised:

"SA artists with big songs should stop doing this."

Mjereza231 was unimpressed:

"They messed up a good song, totally unnecessary to make a remix."
