Global Amapiano sensation Uncle Waffles has unleashed the official music video for her smash single “Zenzele”, featuring Uncool MC, Royal Musiq, CowBoii, and Xduppy. The visual masterpiece arrives after the track’s explosive success, having amassed over 9 million Spotify streams and inspired 300,000+ TikTok creations since its December 2024 release on her acclaimed 4 Da Ho’s EP.
Directed by Kmane and creatively led by Uncle Waffles, the video is a vibrant celebration of Amapiano culture. Set against a spray-painted mural backdrop, it blends 2000s/Y2K streetwear aesthetics with high-energy dance sequences, including the viral “Zenzele” choreography by longtime collaborator Lee-ché “Litchi” Janecke. The opening scene reimagines classic Hip-Hop/R&B dance battles with an Amapiano twist, while Uncle Waffles stuns with her signature splits, backbends, and electrifying footwork.
Starring the full “Zenzele” lineup and a dynamic dance ensemble, the video embodies the communal spirit of Amapiano. Its choreography has already gone global, with recreations by artists like Tyla and fans worldwide.
“Zenzele is more than a song—it’s an experience,” says Uncle Waffles. “We merged Amapiano’s playful tension with the music videos I grew up loving.” The result is a cinematic triumph that solidifies her status as Amapiano’s most electrifying performer.
