SA: Kooldrink shares new single Show Me

The record, which is available for streaming and download on major digital platforms, marks the return of the pop piano genre, which Kooldrink pioneered by blending the pulsating rhythms of amapiano with the captivating melodies of pop.

With ‘Show Me’, Kooldrink is not just releasing a song he is making a statement. The track’s infectious beats, compelling lyrics, and genre-defying sound signal the rise of a new era in global music. Kooldrink, who has already made waves with his production talents, aims to redefine the music industry by embracing his African roots while connecting with audiences worldwide.

“With ‘Show Me’, I wanted to create something that reflects where I come from while also speaking to the world,” Kooldrink said. “Pop piano is about bridging those gaps and bringing the energy of amapiano to a broader audience.”

Kooldrink is no stranger to the global stage. At only 25 years old, he has already made a name for himself as the mastermind behind Tyla’s breakout hit ‘Getting Late’. His extensive list of collaborations includes international superstars like Ed Sheeran, where he produced the official amapiano remix of Sheeran’s hit ‘Bad Habits’ for Asylum/Warner.

With over a decade of production credits under his belt for major labels such as Universal, Mad Decent, and Parlophone, Kooldrink is now signed to EMPIRE, expanding his influence across the world. His unique sound, which combines the raw energy of street sonics with the catchiness of pop melodies, has firmly placed him at the forefront of African electronic music. As the pioneer of pop piano, Kooldrink is determined to elevate the genre by fusing traditional amapiano beats with global pop sensibilities, ensuring that his sound resonates worldwide.
