Fast-rising Amapiano duo Shakes & Les are leveling up in more ways than one, as they recently celebrated a brand-new milestone — purchasing a black Ford Ranger Wildtrak 4×4. The purchase marks another significant moment in their journey, reflecting both their growth in the music industry and the fruits of their consistent hustle.
The duo, known for their explosive live sets and hard-hitting production, took to social media to share the exciting news with their fans. They posted pictures standing proudly next to the sleek new ride, clearly excited about the latest addition to their team — a vehicle that’s not just for show but a practical “company car” to support their ever-demanding gig schedule.
Just a few months ago, Shakes & Les made headlines for purchasing a more modest gig car, a decision praised by fans for its humility and business-savvy approach. That vehicle helped them travel to performances and maintain consistency across the country’s buzzing Amapiano scene. Now, with their brand-new Ford Ranger Wildtrak 4×4, the duo is ready to take things to another level — in both style and functionality.
The Ford Ranger Wildtrak is known for its strength, style, and reliability — fitting symbols for the duo’s trajectory. With hits and bookings steadily rising, the 4×4 will likely serve as a reliable workhorse as they continue to tour extensively.
Their fans celebrated the moment with them, flooding the comment section with congratulatory messages. Many praised the pair for their grounded approach to success and their business-minded decisions, balancing flair with long-term thinking.
The duo’s move reflects a larger narrative in South Africa’s music scene, where artists are increasingly investing in their infrastructure and treating their careers like businesses. From studio upgrades to transport solutions, today’s musicians are more entrepreneurial than ever.
As Shakes & Les continue to build momentum, their latest purchase isn’t just about luxury — it’s a clear signal that they’re in the game for the long haul, ready to shake stages and blaze trails across the country and beyond.
