## What 2 lists say

### No. 3 in [Kwaito](https://waxonia.com/genre/kwaito/)

The record that crossed every line the country still had. A kwaito track adopted by rugby crowds and suburbs alike, and the closest thing post-apartheid South Africa had to a shared anthem.

### Picked by [The Waxonia Desk — The Hundred](https://waxonia.com/selection/the-desk-the-hundred/)

A kwaito record adopted by rugby crowds and townships alike, which nothing else in the country's music had managed. The closest post-apartheid South Africa came to a shared anthem.
