“Love Me Louder” is a soulful and emotionally charged Amapiano track that blends the diverse production skills of Mac Lopez and EMKAY with Kristinah’s captivating voice. This collaboration combines the rich, rhythmic textures of Amapiano with a heartfelt message about love, vulnerability, and connection.

Mac Lopez, EMKAY, and Sino Msolo recently appeared on the remix of ‘Ngiyazifela Ngawe’ which features MacG and TBO.

From the initial few seconds, the track sets up a warm, atmospheric soundscape, comprising soft pads, steady percussion and subtle piano chords that prepare the way for Kristinah’s voice. The log drum progression gradually adds layers, maintaining an engaging groove that doesn’t overpower the vocal performance.

The emotional core of the track is Kristinah’s delivery. Her voice is characterised by a smooth yet powerful quality, conveying both a sense of longing and strength. The hook, focused on the appeal to be “loved louder,” conveys both an intimate and universal tone—addressing the human longing for love that is not concealed or insincere, but confident, unapologetic, and openly expressed.

On the production side, Mac Lopez and EMKAY achieve a perfect balance between soulful and danceable tracks. The rhythm is solid enough for the dance floor, but the melodic elements and vocal layering propel the track into Afro-soul-inspired Amapiano territory. This album is polished, heartfelt, and adaptable, making it suitable for both introspective solo listening and relaxed group gatherings.
