The name OkMalumKookCat” literally means " Ok Uncle Cool Cat ". He's known for his retro fusion of South African Kwaito, house, traditional Zulu maskandi music. He has distinctive weird, dumbed down rap flows and rhyme patterns and he could chime into any beat. He's also known for his highly influential urban street style which directly translates into his music. The guy is a genius in his own right, plus he's probably one of the most authentic South African artists of his generation.
Well said... 🔥🔥🔥♥️
Daam♨️
Plus. He holds the distinction of being the only South African rapper to have a criminal record for sexual assault in Australia
Malume doesn't try to be American
@@thabobhebhe4640 yoh
My man at the back lowkey doing the mannequin challenge 😅
Lusanda Thwala for real tho. 😂😂😂
love him
Lusanda Thwala 😂😂😂😂😂💀
always lmao
😂😂😂😂his been sitting there not saying shit...
Came back in 2020... FLIP I forgot how much I love Okmalumkoolkat!!! GQI!!
That's a South African national dance anthem. If a Dj doesn't play that song, then we have problem lol
it's a mixture but it's a more off hip pop it's a new style unique to South Africa

OMG YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME THIS IS MY FAV JAM BY MALUME AS WELL AS 100K MACASSETTE!!!!
They are really awesome!!!
I've loved it from day 1 till today ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am so proud to be a South African right now. No where in the world will you get that sound.
4:46 Dude in the back was so still, looks like he's photoshopped into the video.
Lelethu Mashaba he was barely blinking 😂
lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 saw that too
Lelethu Mashaba i also thought he was edited to be on the video..lool...#SA IS HOT
Like....he wasn't feeling it hey. At all.
First of I would like to thank you guys for celebrating African music. I am a South African myself and I have been following you guys for a minute now. The artist's name is pronounced Okay Malum(uncle) Cool Cat. The title of the song is not an abbreviation but an onomatopoeia that refers to the sound that a song makes when the beat drops. This song is sang mostly in Zulu and the chorus, loosely translated means " I do not know what happened, I just heard beat drop then I just dabbed"... Anyways you guys are doing a great job. I hope you guys continue doing such great work and that God Blessed you even further.
Dj Slique ft Shekinah- On it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I am so emotional right now!!!!! I've beeeeeeeeeeeen waiting for you guys to react to this song!
Real South African Flava I tell you. This is the kind of music we jaaaam to. Okmalumkoolkat was able to bring that Gqom' house element and hip hop together, more so, rap in Zulu. Absolutely lovely and I'm glad you liked it too. Thank you so much for this.
Stay awesome!
Molo Chuma, my name is Chuma too... Jeez when last did I see another Chuma.
Lol I feel the same way everytime I meet a Chuma :). Pleased to meet you.
Same here
hhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahhahhahahhahhhahahahhahahahahhahahahhhahahahahhahahahaahahahahha emotional? You really like like slums?
+Zama Dladla Yeah sure. it's the reality of about 35% of Durban inhabitants. The way this song makes them dance and be happy is what's really priceless.
Anyways, my emotions were from the fact that I totally love this song and I was one of the people that requested it. And to see how the team liked it as well, that's cool.
it is Zulu and it was filmed in a township in Durban, the lyrics relate to folklore we all grew up with...the beat is universal great job 😁
If only these guys understood the heat of this jam! The reactions weren't enough for me hahahaha but yeah, you guys are amazing still.
Hi y'all
It's the kid of context Ngasii here with another quick bit of context for this video from the lovely Republic of South Africa, better known by its locals as Mzansi.
So, Gqi (said like Okmalumkoolkat says in the song which is like a hard knock or cork popping of a bottle of champagne which uses the "q" click of the Nguni languages of South Africa) is a term used in a sentence that has something to do with arriving or coming rather fast or almost unexpectedly like a "there before you know it" sort of thing.
Example :
- ndizothi gqi ngoku - I will arrive just now. (Xhosa example)
- ebese East London ngo9 wazothi gqi apha ngoku ngo 11 - he/she was in East London at 9 then suddenly was here already by 11.
In this song, the hook is simply Okmalumkoolkat saying he has been taken over by a mysterious force whoch we csn conclude for now is the beat. He too has no clue how it has happened - all he knows is that he is being taken over.
The tune is predomonently rapped in Zulu (well done girl, again I am sorry I have yet to know your name. I'm a Mess🙈) and is shot in his home township of Lamontvile, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa (his hood).
Hook:
Nam'angazi nje (I too got no clue)
Ngizwe ngento nje (I just felt something)
Ithi gqi (it just came)
Wash'umdanso (then came dancing)
Sash'isigubu (then came the drumbeat)
Baleka Koolkati (run Koolkat)
Basile labant' (These peeps' crazy)
Bazok'thathela, Malum' (Malum', They gonna snatch)
Umdanso wakho, Malum' (Your dancing/groove/swag)
The song is a sub-Genre of House called Gqom (large click sound for that like how you say 'Gqi') and is normally characterised by its simpler melodic lines, modern-african instrumentation and signature offbeat kick drum rhythms. Gqom songs tend to have a "dirtier" sound than the more harmony-driven House of South Africa and are generally in a minor key with a low underlying drone in root position that both starts, builds and sustains suspense through the song as you may hear in Gqi.
I hope this aids and once again terrific job by you guys of Ubunifu Space💪✌🔥
"They told me to queue for a slice, fvck it I'm taking the cake, you can go jump in the lake, there's winter there's money to make, there's summer there's money to make" Malume is a beast when it comes to flow fam

It is Zulu and it was filmed in a place called Umlazi which is a township in KZN (KwaZulu-Natal) which is the Home of the ZULU CLAN. Glad to see y'all watching content from my home town! Y'all motivate me to continue making music videos and one day maybe I can get your comments as well 👌🏾🔥Keep up the Motivational work.
aaaaayyyyy💫💫💫this is lit. the flow is amazing. #malum #spovagang #boyznbucks
Hey, I'm from SA and this song is suuper dope. It was done in a township called Umlazi where OkayMalukmKoolkat was born and bred. This song is so cool because it is a mix of Zulu and english and it's an old kiddies riddle in zulu but turned into Zulu. "Gqi" is just a sound which is what they say in the chorus... it goes "Nami angazi nje, ngize nge nto nje ithi GQI" (I don't know I just heard something go GQI)..." washo umdanso, sash' isigubbu" (there go the dance moves, there goes the music).
The guy at the back looks like his worried, sick or something...wassup broh? did u eat, we the people are concerned about u..plz explain
😂🤣😂😂😂
Mxa guys you really need to check Ricky Rick ft Cassper Nyovest Fuseg
this makes me sooooo flippen happy😢😭😭

Dj Slique Ft Shekinah_On It
Reaction Please
Ghost JohnCarTer That's much less "South African" in terms of house music ... its like any other American song that's very very well made though.. mind you I love it by the way.
5:28 -ish. . guy on the left (our right) made an accent .. mate .. that's Nigerian accent not South African. Lol 😂😂😂
Does It Have To Be A 'House Type Of Track' For It To Be Reacted On??
The lady on the back left (our right) mentioned that this was the "South African" beat she knows.. so what's the point of them reacting to a beat that's common around the world?
They've Been Doing That Bruh
Check Out Nasty C NDA
Cassper Nyovest_Tito Mboweni...
And Tell Me How Are Those Two Sound Different From Future beats...
Then Come Back
this is "gqom" which is more like club house here in SA ...and the Artist "Okmalumkoolkat" is a is more of a rap artist...and his name means "okay Uncle cool cat" in English...
Lol i've never seen u guys so focused, till that dab moment hahhaa

Super impressed by the attentiveness from the lady in the red jacket!
The guy in the yellow jacket!!! FLAMES!
it's not house it's called Gqom house-ish but with a lot of spice and yes it was in Zulu
Qqomm is house
Gqom is NOT house
Gqom is a style of house music that emerged in 2015 from the townships of Durban, South Africa. The style features minimalistic and dark beats produced with software such as FruityLoops, and has gained prominence in London.
AmicaMaz qgom eLondon? ngathi usfagel' i spice 😅 maar fede
Hahaha did you read what i said first ? Yup, do your research Khumo. Our SA Djs/producers such as Dj Lag and Amadando have become well renowned over there as a result. Even in ireland. Yes, people in London are bumping kwi Gqom.
Kwesta - Mayibabo feat. DJ Maphorisa, DJ Buckz & OkMalumKoolkat
Best flow this winter best flow come summer
I love watching your videos guys - keep repping South Africa the way you do and we'll rack up your video views! Please share the music with friends and family because I still 'have a dream of seeing an SA emcee in the Source' and the only way we gonna get there is through the exposure you give our artists.
On that note - I would love for you guys to check out "I Have A Dream" by ProVerb - it's a 2005 song that speaks to the heart of South African hip-hop
"witness the funk" please check them out
qomtrap artists in south Africa
This is what is called GQOM the song is gqi (The gq is a click sound .... they they say they say the word when ever the best drops in the video ) ...... gqom is kind of house well let me say the relationship between the two is like the relationship between trap and hip hop .... basically it's a turn up version of house which it's lyrics make no sense whats so ever
On point!
lol guys that's a combination of Zulu rap and house music n I can see u are willing to go with the flow its just that you don't know the language #a big shout to okmalumekoolkat
Thanks guys for reacting to that song, hope you sincerely enjoyed it. Another interesting song but from Nigeria its sang by Tekno Diana.

Guys , it's really easy to find information on South African musicians especially if you're online. Your show could have so much more nuanced commentary if you at least read about the cultures you intend to review before uploading the show. peace
REDDKATPICTURES I think that's the whole idea, they react to music n cultures they are not familiar with
REDDKATPICTURES it's called a reaction for a reason 🙄🙄🙄
They are capturing their first impression/reaction and feel of the song
Politics aside plz... It would be boring if they reacted on something they knew about already. So far they are da best when it comes to REACTIONS.
They don't have to review and react to South African music, they curious and they react to songs from suggestions. Its to give pointers to the artists who might want to go overseas and gives them an honest unjaded reaction. Sway didn't have to interview A.K.A, Cassper Nyovest, Kwesta but he was curious so now they can reach a new market.
Its their opinions why don't you do it yourself...
Dope song.. I lyk the gel wth a red adidas hoodie. im down wth her eyes
😂😂 the lady in red jacket can't help but feel the bang.. that's lovely to see. loving you guys❤❤
Please react to"Shut Up And Groove" by Distruction Boyz you guys will feel the fire🔥🔥🔥🔥

This song is a fusion of New Age Kwaito and Hip Hop. Okmalumkoolkat mixes Zulu and English into his lyrics. He actually meshes his own Lingo into it. Very interesting artist, intriguing even to South Africans

Hands down there's no one like him in our country, but he's way too underrated or more like an artist suppressed by the dynamics of the industry
