Former Kaizer Chiefs Star Junior Khanye Set To Release An Amapiano Song. Former Kaizer Chiefs dribbling wizard, Junior Khanye has been open about his come back since falling off. Khanye is vocal about his redemption and revival after he squandered a promising career due to a life of excessive drinking, fast cars and womanising.
The former Kaizer Chiefs star is set to release an amapiano track titled ‘Obrigado’ set to drop in February. “Muzi is the DJ, Mbali and I are the vocalists and the track was produced by Syper and Sticksbeatz,” he said.
Junior said he came up with the idea of doing a song with Syper and Sticksbeatz when they performed at a celebrity football competition last year. “Cassper Nyovest, Big Zulu, AKAK and many stars played at the Bidvest Wits Universiry stadium in Johannesburg. They then called me and told me how talented I was and wanted to work with me from then,” he added.
“The song was supposed to be out last year, but we didn’t have time as I was busy with other campaigns. I played in front of huge crowds when I was 17, so I don’t think I’ll be scared to perform,” he concluded.
n the early 2000s, he was a rising star for Amakhosi before he fell by the wayside and that seriously affected his career. At the time, he was touted as one of the best talents to have come out of Mzansi but life in the fast lane resulted in him being discarded by clubs. But that is a thing of the past and he has been sober for the last eight years, where he was relaunching his life and career in the social media space.
“I want to give thanks to the SAB for giving me the opportunity to work with them as their ambassador for the next few months. I am very happy and excited about these coming workshops in the townships. I will be working with young kids, schoolteachers and general people because we are losing a lot of lives because of drinking and driving and alcohol problems. SAB is in the business of liquor, but they want to assist people in consuming alcohol in a responsible manner,” said Khanye.
