Amapiano star Pabi Cooper is celebrating a massive achievement as her smash hit “Pabi Jo” officially reaches double platinum status in South Africa. The song, which features Focalistic, Thebuu, Lajere Man, and DJ Dadaman, has sold over 80,000 units, marking a major milestone for the rising music sensation.
Pabi Cooper, who has been steadily climbing the ranks in the Amapiano scene, took to Instagram Stories to flex her latest win — proudly showing off the stunning double platinum plaque she received. While she didn’t write much, the post was filled with celebratory emojis that said it all: joy, gratitude, and triumph.
Released with infectious energy and a signature Amapiano bounce, “Pabi Jo” quickly became a fan-favorite and a staple on dancefloors and party playlists across Mzansi. Its popularity skyrocketed even further when Pabi launched the now-viral #PabiJoDanceChallenge — a slick, feel-good dance routine that captured the hearts (and feet) of fans all over the internet. The challenge played a huge role in pushing the song to new heights, dominating TikTok and Instagram Reels for months.
The collaboration with Focalistic, known for his consistent bangers, alongside the fresh flair of Thebuu, Lajere Man, and DJ Dadaman, created the perfect storm. Their combined talents birthed a song that resonated not just in the clubs but also in the streets, proving once again that Amapiano remains a powerful cultural force.
“Pabi Jo” is more than just a song; it’s a moment. It’s a reflection of Pabi Cooper’s growth as an artist and her ability to tap into what the audience wants. From her dance background to her vocal talents, she has proven herself to be a multi-dimensional entertainer who’s here to stay.
