LISTEN | Elaine jumps on amapiano with Focalistic

Self- proclaimed Presidente ya Strata aka Focalistic and songstress Elaine are cooking up something in studio. 

Taking to his socials on Tuesday Focalistic shared a video of them in studio and teased his followers with the new song that also features amapiano duo Mellow and Sleazy titled Boshego.

“Foca x@elaineofficial_x@mellow_and_sleazy012 — Boshego... what do you think ? Fire flame emojies if wang feeela,” he wrote.

In his mentions his followers gave the song a thumbs-up using fire emojis and some were impressed that Elaine could speak the “Pretorian lingo”.

“They way your music its heavy it trips the main switch,” one wrote. 

“E iragala nou ke tlhakatlhakano ma f*ck up.” added another.

Speaking to TshisaLIVE in May Mellow and Sleazy said the music they grew up listening to, Barcadi, played a great deal in influencing their sound. The sound, most popular and associated with Pitori townships, was pioneered by veteran artists including Machance and DJ Dadaman.

“The reason we chose to make music that has the sound ya Bacardi is because we listen to it. We also grew up about the music at Ga-rankuwa. They listen to Bacardi. The sound is fun with a lot of loudness and drum elements, ke trap yako Pitori ”

Earlier in September Focalistic was glad when he bagged an international award. He won Artiste of the Year at the 15th Headies Awards which are global awards for Afrobeats Music

Taking to his Twitter timeline recently he thanked God for the milestone.

“Blessings on Blessings Dankie Modimo! Dankie Squad Sa Maradona. More Music on the way,” he tweeted
