Speaking on whether he would do amapiano, Da Capo said he would not switch his sound. “No, I wouldn’t do amapiano. Reason being I don’t want to disappoint my hard-core fans. Some even said I shouldn’t attempt to do amapiano. But I don’t hate the sound, I actually did an amapiano remix. I’ve also worked on a project where I featured a lot of amapiano influences like vocalists and so on. Amapiano has its own people, I wouldn’t switch to amapiano. There are a lot of amapiano kids who are killing it in the game, so I’m gonna leave it to them,” he said.
