After entertaining and spreading the gospel of her home town through her DJ sets and tours, Uncle Waffles is now ready for her biggest effort yet – her official entry into music. Recently, Waffles recently took to her Instagram to announce the arrival of her debut EP ‘Red Dragon’, which will be arriving towards the end of March. The 4-track tape is set to feature acts such as Tony Duardo, Boi Bizza, Given Kau, Yedda and more.

Sharing to her 731k Instagram followers, she said:

“This journey has continually proven to be a blessing, now we move into a new part of the journey. My EP, RED DRAGON dropping soon, with the lead single Tanzania ft @sinomsolo @real_boibizza @tonyduardo dropping tomorrow, 16/03/2022.”

In preparation for her debut tape, Waffles has now released her debut song and the lead single off her forthcoming tape. Titled “Tanzania”, the new single puts on display what Waffles has to offer as a solo artist. The single is assisted by fellow South African’s Tony Duardo, Sino Msolo and Boi Bizza. The self-produced Amapiano track, “Tanzania” is a combination of heavy elements of production, from the bass to the kicks on the beats. The track sees the performers singing in their dialect, over the melodious production of the beat, giving listeners and fans an insight on what to expect on the talent’s debut.
