The music video tells a story surrounding different characters trying to get the "YAMZ". "YAMZ" in the story was a synonym for sex, love and jewelry. In an interview with Billboard, Masego explained his vision for his hit single.,
Mesego's musical creative collection got over 2 billion global streams till date. Determined to succeed, he started touring Europe and UK in February, with plans to end his tour in London's O2 Brixton, MArch 13. Following this hit is another hot single 'Garden Party' ft big Boi and JID. NPR's Soul Bounce said “a lush neo-soul single that unveils wonderland. it is a perfect track to close out of the heat of summer and take us into the subdued feel of fall.”
Two music icons, Devin Morrison, and Masego performing "Yamz". Produced under Capitol Records; UMG Recordings, Inc. and EQT Recordings, LLC.
[Chorus: Masego & Devin Morrison]
Question
Can I get to the yams?
Sweet yams
Show me the way
'Cause I got bills to pay
Can I get to the yams?
Sweet yams
Show me the way
’Cause I got bills to pay
[Verse 1: Devin Morrison]
I ain't tryna be broke for the rest of my life (Broke for the rest of my life)
Tryna get my bankroll swole no matter the price
So I gotta shoot shots, gotta make my layups
Gotta get my pay stubs up, you better pay up
'Cause I moved to L.A. to get away from Uncle Sam
[Chorus: Masego & Devin Morrison]
So tell me how can I get to the yams? (Yams)
Sweet yams (Sweet yams)
Show me the way (Show me the way)
’Cause I got bills to pay ('Cause I got bills to pay)
Can I get to the yams? (Hey)
Sweet yams (Now won't show me what's real, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Show me the way (Oh, oh)
'Cause I got bills to pay
[Verse 2: Masego]
Listen
I ain't tryna be stuck in a loop for life (Nah, all my life)
Told myself I wouldn't start my day online (Talk about it)
Don't wanna do, from that shape and how they move (She got them yams)
But is it just a distraction?
Oh, it drives my soul divine (Them yams got soul)
Listen
Ain’t built for the player life
Can’t give an amazing night
To a lady on the side, want a baby and a tribe
And a niece, and a niece, and a niece
Callin' me Uncle Mike
Family and enemies, inner peace
The peace at the top
Listen (Talk loud)
Yams are all I know (Uh, yeah)
But is it just a distraction?
Oh, it drives my soul divine (Yeah)
[Chorus: Masego & Devin Morrison]
Can I get to the yams? (Woo)
Sweet yams (So sweet)
Show me the way (Show me)
’Cause I got bills to pay (Talk about it)
Can I get to the yams? (Can I?)
Sweet yams (Can I?)
Show me the way
'Cause I got bills to pay
Can I get to the yams?
[Bridge: Masego & Devin Morrison]
I know those yams are made for me
No, but I'm only here for, the good pursuit of currency
They say, yams are the power that be (Power that be)
Oh, well, I
Need to play utilities
So tell me, can I get to the yams? (Woo)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus: Masego & Devin Morrison]
Question
Can I get to the yams? (Woo)
Sweet yams (Show me)
Show me the way
'Cause I got bills to pay (’Cause I got bills to pay)
Can I get to the yams?
Sweet yams
Show me the way
'Cause I got bills to pay
Can I get to the yams?
