“Puku Puku” explodes with that unmistakable Durban Gqom fire, uniting three powerhouses — Dladla Mshunqisi, Beast RSA, and Blacks Jnr — for a track that’s pure street energy and dancefloor chaos. From the opening beat, the song commands attention: thundering kicks, razor-sharp snares, and those hypnotic, looping chants that define the raw Gqom experience.
Dladla Mshunqisi, Beast Rsa and Dankie Boi recently appeared on Umnikaz Wendawo featuring GoldMax.
Dladla Mshunqisi leads with his booming, animated vocals — his signature call-and-response style instantly creating that ekasi party feel. Beast RSA comes in with his sharp flow and witty delivery, matching Dladla’s intensity and adding a rhythmic counterpunch. Blacks Jnr brings the fresh flavor, fusing slick production with gritty street influence — the kind of balance that turns a Gqom banger into a nationwide anthem.
The hook, “Puku Puku,” repeats like a rallying cry — simple, catchy, and tailor-made for dance battles and taxi-rank speakers. Each drop hits harder than the last, with layered percussion and vocal chants that keep the energy building without pause.
Lyrically, it’s a celebration of hustle, resilience, and fun — the kind of carefree confidence that defines township life and the Gqom movement itself. The chemistry between the trio is magnetic; their synergy turns the track into a living, breathing pulse of South African nightlife.
In essence, “Puku Puku” is a thunderous Gqom anthem — fierce, unapologetic, and built for movement. It captures the spirit of Durban’s streets: loud, proud, and unstoppable.
