DJ Lag & Jay Music Release 'Yebo (Remix)' Featuring Thobeka

To cap off the year, DJ Lag has an Amapiano and tech-infused remix of 'Yebo' featuring Thobeka; a fan favorite that captured the streets during his Rebellion album rollout. The remix by Jay Music reimagines the original through his Piano-tempoed, hard-hitting drum programming lens.

The year 2024 has been an impressive year for multi-award winner DJ Lag. Since the release of his viral, multi-platinum single 'Hade Boss' (over 900 million engagements on TikTok) in the lead-up to his highly acclaimed sophomore album 'The Rebellion', which has amassed over 70 million streams this year, DJ Lag has been on a hot streak. 

He has embarked on an international tour spanning the USA, UK, Europe, Africa, and Asia, closing off his epic year with a 15,000-capacity show at Drumsheds in London on Friday, December 6th.

DJ Lag and Jay Music discussed the creation process behind the making of 'Yebo (Remix)':

 "I had a short list of people I wanted to flip the original for me and Jay was right at the top of the list… I’ve loved seeing his come-up in recent years and always liked his ability to carve his own path within the Piano world, bringing his signature sound of jaw breaking style of bass and drums to the genre, so it made perfect sense for an energy track like 'Yebo',” - DJ Lag.

"Working on this remix with DJ Lag was such a special moment for me. As an Amapiano producer, getting the chance to work with one of my biggest inspirations was unreal. Even though we weren’t in the same studio, the energy came through in every beat. DJ Lag’s influence is all over the track, and it was incredible to add my own Amapiano touch to something so raw and powerful. It felt like bridging two worlds—melding the groove of Amapiano with the energy of Gqom. I’m really proud of what we’ve created together and I hope it connects with listeners the way it did for me during the process.” - Jay Music.
