TxC are officially having a moment, and the numbers prove it. The dynamic duo are celebrating the overwhelming success of their hit single “Nakupenda,” which has taken over streaming platforms and dance floors in record time. In just three days, the song reached No.1 on Apple Music, surpassed 1 million streams on Spotify, and clocked an impressive 2 million views on YouTube, marking a major career milestone for the fast-rising stars.
The duo took to Instagram to share their excitement and gratitude with fans, writing: “OMG! Nakupenda is doing so well!

To our team, listeners & every artist on our song, GRATEFUL is an understatement!” The post quickly drew congratulatory messages from fans, fellow artists, and industry figures, all applauding the scale of the achievement.
“Nakupenda” is a powerful collaboration that brings together a diverse and influential lineup, featuring Davido, Shoday, Scotts Maphuma, Zlatan, and Al Xapo. This cross-border fusion has clearly struck a chord, especially in Nigeria, where the song has become an instant favourite. With its infectious rhythm, catchy hook, and seamless blend of Amapiano and Afrobeats influences, the track has Nigerians on their feet and singing along.
The success of “Nakupenda” highlights TxC’s growing influence beyond South Africa, positioning them as serious contenders on the African music scene. Their ability to collaborate with top-tier Nigerian artists and still maintain their unique sound speaks to their versatility and global appeal. The song’s rapid rise also reflects the increasing cultural exchange between South African Amapiano and West African sounds, a movement that continues to redefine the continent’s music landscape.
While “Nakupenda” is already making huge waves in Nigeria, its impact is steadily spreading back home. South African fans have embraced the track, and its chart performance suggests that it is set to become a long-standing anthem across both regions. The momentum shows no signs of slowing down, with more streams, views, and accolades expected in the coming weeks.
For TxC, this moment represents more than just impressive numbers—it’s validation of their hard work, vision, and ability to create music that resonates across borders.
