#BlackCoffeeftYoza: Twitter user scores collab with Black Coffee
Yesterday was Yoza Mnyanda’s crown birthday and she decided to shoot her shot.

Even Twitter itself is not-so-patiently awaiting the release for what is sure to be the song of 2017.

If you, like the rest of South Africa, simply can’t wait for the song to be released, here’s a 17-year-old Mnyanda killing Duffy’s Warwick Avenue.
