In the chaotic year of 2023, South African House music DJ, Prince Kaybee, found an unexpected glimmer of hope and success. He became a record-breaking sensation on Spotify, garnering a whopping 10.7 million streams as revealed by the platform’s yearly review. This achievement is particularly astounding given that the DJ admitted to not dedicating his usual level of effort towards his music during that year.
Prince Kaybee’s road to this remarkable feat was far from being a walk in the park. Recognized for his unique blend of house and dance music, he found himself in the eye of a media hurricane. His outright support for the New Zealand All Blacks, in favor of his home team, the Springboks, evoked public outrage and protest. The controversy took a turn for the worse when influencer Cyan Boujee accused him of pedophilia, following an incident involving a leaked sex tape.
Regardless of the negative attention that seemed to permeate his year, Prince Kaybee’s music continued to strike a chord with listeners globally. He dazzled 1.5 million fans across 180 countries, amassing an impressive 819K hours of playtime. This unforeseen victory was received with gratitude by the DJ, who expressed his deep thanks to his followers on Instagram, acknowledging their unwavering support even in a year when he had not dedicated as much time to his music.
Even in the face of trials, his dedicated fans remained steadfast, a fact that was clear in the comments on his posts. They were not taken aback by his achievement, referencing their unwavering loyalty to his music and congratulating him on this substantial accomplishment.
However, the rapid ascent of the Amapiano genre, especially during the global pandemic, has instigated discussions about the future viability of DJ Kaybee and house music. Amapiano experienced a staggering 622% surge in streaming in South Africa alone, according to a report by CNN. It drew in a significant audience from the UK and the US, securing the second and third spots respectively for the most streams of the same playlist.
Despite the indisputable popularity of Amapiano, Prince Kaybee’s fans remain unperturbed, praising the evergreen nature of his House music. They displayed their faith in the longevity of his music, with comments like “Forever wena. You released some timeless gems” and “You’re talented, and your music is timeless”.
While Amapiano reigns supreme in the South African music scene, House music continues to maintain its relevance. It remains an important genre, championed by heavyweights like Oskido, Heavy-K, and Master KG, who consistently top charts and win numerous awards. Prince Kaybee, notwithstanding the hurdles of 2023, stands as a symbol of the persistent charm of House music. His unwavering fan base, along with his recent Spotify triumph, serves as proof of the enduring influence of his music, even in a rapidly changing landscape.
