The smash single ‘Biri Marung’ has been officially certified double platinum, which is a huge milestone for the song and its composers, giving Amapiano fans a lot to celebrate.
‘Biri Marung’ gained popularity due to the dance challenge on TikTok. The song was also certified platinum a month ago.
Amapiano has solidified its place as a global phenomenon. You hear it everywhere – clubs in Ibiza, festivals in Brazil, and even in mainstream pop songs. South African artists are headlining international tours and collaborations across genres are becoming more common.
The song’s success is mostly due to its memorable vocal lines and addictive beat. Its log drum percussion and funky basslines perfectly capture the essence of amapiano, which is a fusion of deep house, jazz, and kwaito influences.
In celebration of this major accomplishment, Mr Pilato took to Instagram and shared his gratitude with fans.
“Double platinum, It can only be God thank you @djmaphoisa @trevs_ramovha @zikozikogp,” said Mr Pilato.
