Bontle Smith has just dropped her latest single titled Vimba, featuring an impressive lineup of artists including Scotts Maphuma, Shaunmusiq, FTears, Stady K, and Mbuxx. The track not only delivers the infectious energy that fans expect from Smith but also takes a playful jab at some of the behind-the-scenes challenges that come with the music industry.
The creation of Vimba came together during an impromptu studio session with Shaunmusiq and FTears. Reflecting on the process, Smith shared in an interview, “After recording Beke le Beke with Scotts, I started spending more time in the studio, where we developed Vimba along with several other tracks.” The collaborative effort shines through in the final product, with each artist adding their own unique flair to the track.
Smith explained the song’s creative process in more detail: “The producers crafted the beat, and Scotts and I immediately got to work. I came up with the melodies for the pre-hook and my verse, and Scotts took it further by adding a catchy hook and a fantastic verse that flowed perfectly with the beat.”
While Vimba is an upbeat, fun-filled track, it also cleverly touches on the sometimes tricky relationships between artists and venue promoters. The song humorously highlights the common misunderstandings and miscommunications that often occur during the booking process. Smith emphasized, “There’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes when it comes to performing. We’ve had some tough experiences with certain promoters, but we’ve also built great relationships with others. Vimba isn’t meant to complain but rather to poke fun at the challenges we face.”
For fans, Vimba delivers exactly what they’ve come to expect from Bontle Smith: a vibrant, dance-worthy tune that’s perfect for parties, gatherings, and street vibes. The track has an infectious energy that invites listeners to sing along, dance, and enjoy the music without taking things too seriously.
With its catchy hooks, lively production, and playful lyrics, Vimba is set to be another hit for Smith. The single is now available on all major streaming platforms, and fans are already embracing the fun, celebratory atmosphere it brings to the Amapiano genre.
