Thulani Way, The Amapiano Experience, JazziQ Drama, Party in Tanzania

Loading player...
In this explosive episode of *The Shady Phodcast*, we sit down with one of the most influential voices in the Amapiano scene — *Thulani Way*. Known as the unofficial *ambassador of the culture*, Way Way pulls back the curtain on the industry and drops gems (and some serious shade) you won’t hear anywhere else.

He speaks candidly about:
- The *secret party in Tanzania* — inspired by illegal lockdown parties on the outskirts of Joburg.
- The **art of curating unforgettable events** and building nightlife experiences from the ground up.
- The **birth of the Amapiano Awards** and what it took to make them a reality.
- *That* infamous *brawl with JazziQ* — the real story, straight from the source.
- His mission to *preserve and elevate* Amapiano culture on a global scale.

This is more than just a chat — it’s a deep dive into the man, the movement, and the music.
