MBABANE– Lungelihle Zwane, better known as the tenacious Uncle Waffles, is proving she is more than just a pretty face whose claim to fame is dancing to Young Stunna’s hit song ‘Adiwele’.

Uncle Waffles dropped a new single titled ‘Yahyuppiyah’ this is a lead single off of her upcoming project, ‘Asylum’ which will be dropping tomorrow.

The song is currently sitting on over a million views and is on top of trending lists on South African and International platforms.

Yesterday, Uncle Waffles took to social media to announce the release date of the viral song and revealed its official cover art.

Uncle Waffles, Justin99 and Tony Duardo released  her highly anticipated single, ‘Yahyuppiyah’ featuring EeQue, Pcee and Chley and officially became the first Liswati to achieve over a million views on two projects she has done. 

The DJ is not new to getting people to appreciate her work, from her 28-second clip that landed her on this journey, to Tanzania visuals which amassed views in a day. 

Meanwhile, the new song has set social media on fire and earlier this year, Justin99 shared a short snippet of the song on TikTok, and content creator Aya started a dance challenge for it thereafter.
