Mellow & Sleazy Celebrate 56 Million Streams On Spotify. Mellow and Sleazy have pushed against all odds to become SA’s most coveted amapiano duos, having been raised in rough neighborhoods rife with crime, drugs and violence. Real names Phemelo Sefanyetse and Olebogeng Kwanaite, the stars are from Soshanguve and Ga-Rankuwa, in Tshwane, respectively.
They stepped into the music industry at the beginning of the pandemic and they have since rose to superstardom. It’s all thanks to their collaborations with DJ Maphorisa, Felo Le Tee, Focalistic and Young Stunna. Their hits include Nkao Tempela, Salary Salary and Chipi ke Chipi. The duo took to social media to celebrate 56 million streams and 4.8 million listeners. They also thanked their fans for the support and milestones. Check it out:
“I met Mellow at tertiary two years ago. I have always been into music production and creating beats. Before amapiano, I used to produce trap songs and a bit of kasi hip-hop. One day I was hanging out with my friends and Mellow happened to be there because we both liked trap, we sort of clicked,” Sleazy
“Our love for music grew as we spent time together. We ultimately decided we needed to form a group in the amapiano space. We then hit one of our friends up and asked if we could use his makeshift studio. We recorded a few amapaino songs that never saw the light of day.
