The youngster specialises in rock music and found a way to connect with the people of Mzansi through art. He realised the pain people felt when they got turned down at a fast food restaurant because it ran out of food.

In the townships, people usually get heartbroken when they get told that fat cakes are up. In recent videos, people talked about the incomparable pain, and the young artist turned the low vibrational emotions into a song.

Man makes rock song about amagwinya and goes viral

The young man looked to go viral and perfectly capturing the sadness of the song with the instrumentals and the pace at which he played his guitar. His lyrics were repetitive and highlighted that there are no more fat cakes.

The song went viral after he teased it on TikTok, the same way he promoted his last viral hit, Gwababa, which is the act of being too shy to approach a girl. His other well-thought-out music does not get a lot of attention, but the low-effort projects reach thousands of people across the country.

The Amagwinya Aphelile song has been streamed all over Mzansi, and thousands of videos have been created using the audio on TikTok. He announced online that people could listen to the now-viral song anywhere:

“Amagwinya Aphelile out now on all streaming platforms.”
