And it’s a wrap… no, not yet

AKA and Youngstacpt, seemed to have teamed up to collaborate on their first track together.

The Fela in Versace hitmaker, who was featured in the Comedy Central Roast of AKA on Monday, confirmed as much earlier this week when he tweeted: “I couldnt watch the roast tonight because I’m in studio making a song.”

When Youngstacpt met AKA in The Assembly nightclub in 2012, the two had a quick chat, not realising a few years later they would be at the top of the game.

Youngstacpt (real name Riyadh Roberts), 27, says he and AKA have been in talks about a collaboration for two years.

But he can’t reveal any details of the track yet.

His manager Jarryd Williams says: “The direction of the track can’t be disclosed as yet. However, the fans will be in for a treat with South Africa’s most anticipated collaboration.”

Williams said there was no release date yet as the track still needed “some work”.

A source close to Youngstacpt said the five-hour studio session was set up in AKA’S hotel room when he was in Cape Town over the weekend.

He returned to Johannesburg on Wednesday. The source said it was a “very organic hook-up”.

“AKA was in Cape Town, we had spare time and so did he, so we thought let’s do it now.

“We recorded in AKA’S hotel room and the studio session took at least five hours but it’s not done yet.”

AKA (real name Kiernan Forbes), 31, is now based in Joburg, but spent most of his childhood at his grandmom’s house in Mitchells

Plain.

In an interview with Kfm on Tuesday, he spoke about growing up in Westridge. “This is where I’m from, these are the people that made me, it’s a nice community, one of the better neighbourhoods, you can walk to the shops and play in the park etc,” he said. | IOL
