“Kanjan” by EeQue & Al Xapo, featuring Leemckrazy and Matute, is a bold and rhythm-heavy Amapiano track that brings together some of the most exciting voices in the scene. From the very first note, the track introduces listeners to a thick groove anchored by rolling log drums, layered synths, and a dynamic percussive drive that’s signature to the genre’s more street-centric “Sgija” and “Private School” Amapiano substyles.
EeQue, Al Xapo and Xduppy recently appeared on Yiyo featuring Kwesta, Leemckrazy and DBN Gogo.
EeQue opens the track with his usual confident swagger, weaving between the beat with clever lyricism and sharp delivery. Al Xapo, known for his unique tone and ad-libs, brings additional energy, making each line resonate with the dancefloor atmosphere the song thrives in. Leemckrazy, a fan-favorite in the underground scene, adds vocal textures and harmonies that balance out the track, while Matute introduces a fresh sound with his smooth yet impactful contribution.
Lyrically, “Kanjan” is playful and vibey—it taps into themes of nightlife, groove, street talk, and the cultural lingo that resonates with young audiences across South Africa. The phrase “Kanjan” itself (loosely meaning “how” or “what’s up”) becomes a catchy chant throughout the chorus, creating a call-and-response energy perfect for crowd interaction.
