He is celebrated for his hit tracks, such as "Mnike," which was certified platinum in South Africa, and "Bella Ciao," a collaboration with Nicole Elocin, DJ Maphorisa, and Kabza De Small.
Tyler ICU's hit "Banyana" with DJ Maphorisa also earned double platinum status. The songs have propelled him into the spotlight, making him one of the most sought-after DJs in the Amapiano scene.
The upcoming performance in Kigali follows Tyler ICU's successful debut in the city in August 2023, when he performed at Atelier Du Vin, alongside popular Rwandan artists.
The event was a massive hit, drawing a lively crowd, predominantly young fans, who enjoyed the midnight performance of Amapiano music. His show was a major highlight of the night, culminating in the early hours of the morning.
