'It's a win for all young women coming up': Amapiano duo TxC on BET award
TxC also used the moment to thank their supporters and team. 'To our fans: this [award] is for you,' said Hefke. 'Every stream, every show, every share — we see you. And to our label, thank you for believing in us.'
Other South African nominees in the category included Dlala Thukzin and Maglera Doe Boy, highlighting the strong presence of local talent at this year's awards. The category also featured artists from Nigeria, UK, Tanzania, France and Brazil.
TxC's win reflects the growing international interest in amapiano, a genre that has enjoyed rapid global expansion in the past three years.
'Consistency, vision and hard work got us here,' Reid said. 'If we can do it, others can too.'
Now based between Joburg and international stages, TxC intend to continue to fly the flag for South African music abroad, with their BET win marking what many hope is just the beginning.
