South African rapper Gigi Lamayne is celebrating another major milestone following the release of her latest collaborative single, “Imnandi Lento.” The artist recently appeared on Audiomack Africa’s Women of AmaPiano cover, marking a significant moment in her continued exploration of the amapiano and 3-step music space.
The feature arrives shortly after the release of “Imnandi Lento,” a track that sees Gigi Lamayne joining forces with Pcee, Ndloh Jnr and VMB. The single was officially released in May and blends hip hop lyricism with amapiano rhythms and the growing influence of 3-step production.
Celebrating the Audiomack Africa recognition, Gigi Lamayne shared a message reflecting on the collaboration and the creative direction behind the record. In her post, she wrote: “A rapper and her 3 talented friends ‘3 stepped’ onto a Yanos cover. With @audiomackafrica – Mutation, invasion, expansion, elevation, creation. Thank you @audiomackafrica @pcee.official @ndlohjnr @vugarmbeats.”
Her statement highlighted both the collaborative nature of the song and the genre-blending approach that defines “Imnandi Lento.” The release has positioned Gigi Lamayne alongside some of the current voices contributing to the evolving sound of amapiano and 3-step in South Africa’s music scene.
“Imnandi Lento” was created as a fusion of multiple sonic influences, bringing together rap delivery, dance-driven production and melodic elements associated with amapiano. The track also represents another step in Gigi Lamayne’s musical experimentation as she continues expanding beyond traditional hip hop sounds.
Audiomack Africa’s Women of AmaPiano platform has increasingly become a space dedicated to spotlighting women contributing to the genre’s growth across the continent. Gigi Lamayne’s inclusion on the cover follows the momentum generated by the release of the single and its reception across digital streaming platforms.
