“Kusho Bani” makes Cassper Nyovest most-streamed South African rapper

Cassper Nyovest has silenced his critics with his hit single “Kusho Bani,” now the most-streamed South African hip hop track worldwide.

Released on 7 February 2025, the song faced early criticism, with some calling Mufasa a “has-been.”

That did not stop the track from racking up over 5.7 million streams, placing it ahead of Yanga Chief’s “What If? (Mngani)” at number 27 on Spotify’s Global Impact List.

The song’s viral dance challenge even drew international attention, with stars like Serena Williams joining in.

The success proves Cassper’s staying power in a music scene dominated by Amapiano.

Fans are celebrating, with one saying, “You can say what you want about Cass, but the charts do not lie. He is still number one.”
