Yumbs, a South African producer and DJ, has rapidly ascended in the music scene with his innovative approach to Amapiano, blending traditional African rhythms with modern electronic elements. Born Ayanda Oratile Yumba in Kagiso in 2002, his musical journey began at the National School of the Arts, where he honed his skills in bass, guitar, and piano. His breakout came in 2020 with co-production on Musa Keys' hit "Vula Mlomo," leading to collaborations with artists like Kelvin Momo, Pabi Cooper, and international acts such as Will.I.Am and Pharrell Williams. In 2024, Yumbs collaborated with British dance music trio Afro Medusa to release "Pasilda - Yumbs vs Afro Medusa," a fusion of Amapiano and classic house that showcases his versatility and global appeal.
