In a remarkable achievement, the remix of “Tshwala Bam” by TitoM, Yuppe, and Burna Boy has soared to the top of the TikTok Africa Top 50 chart. This milestone underscores the powerful impact of their collaboration and solidifies the song’s status as a major hit across the continent.
Released just a week ago, the remix has quickly taken the music scene by storm. It has not only topped charts in South Africa and Nigeria but also amassed over a million streams within days. This swift rise in popularity highlights the song’s infectious appeal and the artists’ widespread influence.
