TKZee - Shibobo / The Final Countdown

1998

TKZee with Bafana Bafana striker Benni McCarthy, built over the Europe riff, released around the 1998 World Cup and instantly the country's football anthem. A kwaito group taking a stadium-rock hook and running it over a slowed house track is the clearest possible demonstration that this was dance music, not rap. Tokollo Tshabalala died in 2022.
