Born Boineelo Seokwang, Puff Nesca is cementing himself as one of the budding artists to look out for, showcasing his versatile and unique style.
The song comes after the success of his previous single titled Jomo, where he celebrates soccer greats like Jomo Sono, Portia Modise and other SA football legends.
His song, which debuted in March, loosely translates as “we’re having fun,” draw on its combination of Amapiano and Kwaito sound featuring Pretorian DJ and producer Louis Lunch and fellow upcoming artist Buddy Lenyora.
“I worked with the guys from Pretoria, that’s where Amapiano originated from so it’s a track that is to get people in a party mood. It takes me back to my younger years during the era when groups of friends would fill up VW Caravelle minibuses and head to parks and resorts for a good time,” Puff Nesca said.

The 33-year-old described his sound as ‘authentic South African dancing sound.
“The people that inspired me are the likes of Kabelo Mabalane, Zola, and I had been doing music long before, but decided to go professionally at 30 because I wanted to do it when I was comfortable and ready for the industry. My music is about everyday love, the things that South Africans experience.”
