Uncle Waffles has done it again — shaking up the Amapiano scene with the release of the highly anticipated “Zenzele” music video, featuring Royal Musiq, CowBoii, Xduppy, and Uncool MC. Known for her genre-bending sounds and high-impact visuals, Uncle Waffles delivers a bold street-style cinematic piece that captures the energy and attitude of the Amapiano movement.
The video dropped on June 3rd at 6 PM, as previously teased by the DJ and performer on Instagram. Fans were buzzing with excitement following her cryptic post:
“Ohh, we have a date tomorrowwwwwwwwww. See you on YouTube at 6pm ! 💋”

The music video opens with a creative and cheeky skit — Uncool MC asking out Uncle Waffles outside a building, setting a playful tone that quickly transitions into the fast-paced, dance-driven world of “Zenzele.” Viewers are then transported to a vibrant street scene, where local flair meets electric choreography. A group of dancers led by Uncle Waffles brings infectious energy to the screen, while a group of guys lounging on crates adds an authentic township flavor to the visual storytelling.
The real heat begins when collaborators CowBoii, Xduppy, and Uncool MC step into the frame. CowBoii delivers his verse with charisma, backed by visuals that celebrate everyday South African street culture — from taxi ranks to corner store energy, every shot feels grounded yet powerful.
The track itself is pure Amapiano fire — layered with pulsating log drums, groove-heavy basslines, and a soulful message of self-empowerment and joy. Uncle Waffles continues to blur the line between DJ, artist, and performer, and her eye for detail and visual expression is fully realized in this music video.
