Versatile MMP Family drops Amapiano single

With the new song, the trio of Modiri ‘M.O.D.’ Nage, Tebogo ‘Mzico’ Baipedi and Mothusi ‘Ples’ Jackalas have diverted from their original style to tap into the trendy Amapiano music, in a move that reflects their versatility as musicians. In an interview with Arts & Culture, M.O.D said the song is part of a collection of new songs that will make it into their upcoming Extended Play (EP) due for release in two weeks. M.O.D also explained that they were driven to do an Amapiano song because they wanted to show their versatility, as well as try to move with the times. However, he denied that they did it out of pressure to fit in with the times.

“We didn’t do Amapiano song because of pressure. We have a lot of music that we can just drop anytime. With this one, we just wanted to show our versatility, and show that we are also moving with the times because no one wants to be seen to be stuck. We are able to switch if need be. But I must say we are not moving into Amapiano.
