Artist: DJ Phaphane x Diamond Platnumz Ft. Chley & LeeMcKrazy
Song Title: Abayeke
Genre: Amapiano / Afrobeats
Release Date: 2026
South African producer DJ Phaphane joins forces with Tanzania’s global superstar Diamond Platnumz for an explosive cross-border collaboration titled Abayeke, further enlisting the talents of Chley and LeeMcKrazy for a record that is as ambitious as it is infectious.
The track is firmly rooted in Amapiano, built on the signature log drum basslines, rolling piano melodies, and buoyant percussion that have made the genre a dominant force across the African continent and beyond. The production is crisp and immaculately arranged, carrying the unmistakable fingerprints of South African township sound while leaving enough room for Diamond’s distinctive East African flavour to breathe and assert itself comfortably.
Diamond Platnumz delivers with the effortless star quality that has made him one of Africa’s most recognised voices, riding the Amapiano groove with a charisma and confidence that feels completely natural. Chley and LeeMcKrazy complement brilliantly, adding authentic South African vocal texture and energy that grounds the record in its sonic roots while pushing it toward a wider pan-African audience.
Abayeke is a seamless meeting of East and South African musical worlds, executed at the highest level and built for dancefloors, festival stages, and playlist dominance alike. A major cross-border record that deserves every bit of attention it is about to receive.
