Tyler ICU pleased with Mnike’s success

Mnike hitmaker Tyler ICU has expressed his gratitude to his fans for their support and revealed he almost died earlier this year.

His song Mnike made the number two spot on the Local Top 100 and International Top 200 charts on the Official SA charts. It also made its rounds on social media, with many joining in and doing the “Mnike dance.”

The Amapiano sensation Austin Baloyi, famously known as Tyler ICU, is happy to be alive and making hits.

The DJ appreciates the support. His song has generated millions of streams across different streaming platforms.

He took to social media to thank his fans for their unwavering support after Mnike made history.

“Thank you so much,” he wrote on Twitter. “This is life-changing not only to me but also to the people involved in the songs. Mostly Thank God because I wouldn’t be here today,” he further wrote. “Those who know that at the beginning of the year, I had it bad that I was nearly gone from this world.”

The young producer gained attention after the release of his song “Bella Ciao,” alongside Nicole Elocin, Kabza De Small, and DJ Mapjorisa on the well-known “Money Heist” album. Since then, he has worked with other well-known artists, solidifying his reputation in the Amapiano scene.
