Tyler ICU exclusively talks about the remake
The popular producer also exclusively spoke to Briefly News about the decision behind him doing the remix.
He said:
"Was watching an interview of Xelimpilo how he was talking about DJ Mamphorisa being well cooked in terms of music, and he talked about how they make the song Khona and his iconic part on the song
"I remember I had just landed from Dubai, and one of my producers was making this sgija instrumental I liked the bounce of the beat, so then it hit me that I could sample that iconic part of his, so Mara made a song out of it, that’s when I called Khalil to come drop some vocals."
Tyler ICU also spoke about how he approached blending his unique sound with such a beloved classic:
"For me, blending is nothing. I have learned to find ways to just make something mine and not fear to make it sound different.
"I think the bassline was the big approach I went with when making the song cause I just wanted to sound very heavy-bodied that you just feel the lowest vibrations even through a headphone, and that alone allowed us to add the iconic flutes but with a twist to them and the choice of the vocalist that was a mission but with such great luck all the guys were happy to come together and make this vision of mine true."
