Emtee Hints At Dropping New Music While Addressing Critics. South African trap pioneer Emtee has once again sparked conversation on social media with a cryptic yet confident teaser about new music.
The award-winning artist took to X (formerly Twitter) to let fans in on a low-key studio grind, sharing, “We been cooking on the low. Every one of us.”
Fans, ever eager for fresh drops from the DIY hitmaker, quickly responded. One supporter replied, “Give us something nyana,” prompting a pointed yet telling response from Emtee.
“I’m waiting for everybody to tell me when they done twerking bout my name,” he tweeted. “Actually I want them to keep the same energy as last year so I can strike again.”
The post is widely interpreted as a subtle clapback at critics who doubted or disrespected the rapper in the past year. Emtee, known for his resilience and raw honesty, seems to be channelling past controversy into fuel for his next move.
His comments come hot on the heels of a major career milestone: Emtee recently bagged a Metro FM Award for Best Produced Album with DIY 3, a project praised for its stripped-back authenticity and emotive storytelling. The win marks a triumphant return for the rapper, who has navigated industry turbulence and personal trials with a steady focus on growth and independence.
While he didn’t drop any release dates or track titles, fans can expect that whatever Emtee’s cooking in the studio isn’t just about making hits—it’s about making a statement.
