ShakaMan YKTV’s The Next Better Kid is a bold and dynamic album that showcases his evolution as an artist and producer within the Amapiano and Afro-fusion space. The project is a diverse body of work, blending party-ready bangers with introspective moments, giving listeners both high-energy anthems and soulful tunes to reflect on.
ShakaMan YKTV, Da Trill, Amu Classic and Kappie recently appeared on Qobetsa featuring Malemon, Mr Nation Thingz and Macasset.
Across the album, ShakaMan collaborates with a mix of up-and-coming and established artists, pushing the sonic boundaries of his sound. Expect everything from percussive-heavy amapiano tracks, to Afro-house crossovers, to more emotive, vocal-centered pieces. With themes of growth, resilience, and celebration, The Next Better Kid feels like both a personal statement and a gift to the genre.
