“4 Pound” by General C’mamane is a hard-hitting gqom track that encapsulates the raw, unfiltered essence of Durban’s underground sound. Known for his aggressive production style, C’mamane delivers a bass-heavy, rhythm-centric composition built around distorted kicks, syncopated snares, and minimal melodic interference.

The title “4 Pound” metaphorically alludes to weight and impact—both of which are reflected in the sonic force of the track. It’s engineered for the street: no-frills, percussion-driven, and deliberately intense. The repetitive vocal samples serve more as rhythmic triggers than narrative devices, reinforcing the track’s function as a high-energy club weapon.
In summary, 4 Pound is a pure, industrial-strength gqom offering that showcases General C’mamane’s mastery of tension, repetition, and beat architecture. It’s unapologetically bold—tailored for dance floors, street parties, and cultural spaces where rhythm takes precedence over melody.
