South African internet-sensation-turned-amapiano-star Kamo Mphela is proving that she’s worth her salt.
The “Ghost” hitmaker recently made history with her new amapiano single, “Dalie”, featuring Khalil Harrison and Tyler ICU.
Mphela has become the first South African lead female artist in history to have a song receive more than100K daily streams on SA Spotify.
The last female artist to do this was Adele back in 2021.
“Dalie” also retains a high ranking on all major streaming platforms. It is first on Audiomack, second on YouTube and Shazam and third on Spotify and Apple Music.
It is also doing well in other African countries, among them Tanzania, Uganda, Nigeria and Ghana, and is number 11 on the Shazam Global Charts.
On TikTok, the song received more than 253.2 million views.
The star took to Instagram to share the news.
“All we can do is thank god 🙏🏾 & the team ❤️🤘🏾 ( it’s just stats),” she wrote in the caption.
