Renowned producer Family First returns with a soulful, heartfelt Amapiano hit titled “Intombi Yam”, a powerful collaboration featuring two of South Africa’s standout vocalists, Sykes and Zeenhle. “Intombi Yam” is a vibrant love letter that celebrates admiration, connection, and the beauty of Black love through smooth melodies and emotional storytelling.
At its core, “Intombi Yam” is a romantic ode to one’s significant other praising her beauty, loyalty, and essence. With its deep basslines, rich log drums, and shimmering percussive layers, the track perfectly blends the emotional depth of classic soul with the infectious groove of modern Amapiano.
Sykes, the 22-year-old Durban-born hitmaker behind viral sensations like “Sisekaneni Babies” and the double-platinum “iPlan” (with Dlala Thukzin), brings his signature melodic delivery and romantic lyricism to the track. Meanwhile, Zeenhle, known for her standout features on “Selimathunzi” with DJ Stokie and “Hleka Nabo” with Ntokzin, adds her silky, evocative vocals, elevating the track into a true anthem of passion and grace.
With “Intombi Yam,” Family First delivers a timeless, dance-ready single that resonates both emotionally and rhythmically, bridging tradition with contemporary finesse. It’s a track that not only fills dance floors but also hearts, showcasing the producer’s knack for storytelling through sound.
