DJ Maphorisa And Tyler ICU Drop ‘Izolo’ Visuals. Top-notch and award-winning record producers DJ Maphorisa and Tyler ICU who have been dominating the amapiano genre for more than two years now dropped an amapiano banger titled ‘Izolo’ where they featured Mpura, Daliwonga and Visca.
Following the huge success of the hit single, the du have decided to drop visuals to accompany the top-charting single. ‘Izolo’ which was on high demand before its official release, was lifted from their just-released mini album project titled “Banyana EP” which housed just 3 tracks as they tend to make it ‘short and simple’. The track also has been one of the most demanded locked tunes since it was sampled on Amapiano Balcony mix with Major League DJz.
Maphorisa’s studio has become a legendary haven for artists, both up-and-coming and established, that pass through it — including Kabza De Small, whose I Am The King of Amapiano: Sweet & Dust helped introduce amapiano to a wider audience. Tyler ICU on the other hand grew interest in making beats started when he first heard the debut studio album by American hip hop producer Dr. Dre. He started making beats aged 10 years when he got his first computer. Today, he is one of the amapiano mainstays.
Speaking o how he makes songs blow up, Maphorisa said, “How it usually happens is that we’ll either do an ordinary or exclusive mix, then publish it. People start paying attention to it — some music bloggers will distribute it on their blogs, websites and YouTube channels. That’s generally how our songs start growing. This usually helps us measure a track’s potential because, the truth of the matter is that, we have a lot of songs but not all of them are going to be massive hits. There’s a trend to this thing! Most songs that made it big were because someone posted a video of, either, myself or Kabza DJing or dancing to it. Social media dance challenges also help songs blow up. Lastly, a big shout out to TikTok for always putting us on!”
