South African Amapiano producer N T S A K O XVI opens his new album with “Nyakss,” the first track on XVI’s Diary. The song introduces listeners to the sound and direction of the 8-track project.
As the opening release, “Nyakss” sets the tone for what follows. It also puts N T S A K O XVI’s approach to the genre on full display. The track arrived as part of XVI’s Diary, released in 2026 through 101 Music and EMPIRE.
The record anchors a project built around collaborations with names from the Amapiano scene, including Shaun 101, Ch’cco and Scotts Maphuma. So the beat carries weight beyond one song, since it opens a broader collection shaped by the producer’s evolving direction.
