Afro-Beat is an underappreciated art. I been into Hip-Hop for over 20 years. I'm 30 now and just became a fan of these songs

@Cassykakes
Afro beat WAS under appreciated Now its been getting noticed like sir where you been??? Burna boy Davido wizkid etc making noise across the board esp in US 🤷🏾♀️😂
@Makaveli-ei2eu
@sandra adefila where I'm from, most people don't know this kind of music. I was born and raised in Austria. The first time I discovered Afrobeats was a year ago, when I went to an Afrobeat/Dancehall night at a club and heard tracks from Wizkid and Burna Boy's deep voice singing "Angeli Angelinaaaa you dey cool my temperatuuure". I was vibing immediately 🤣 ever since then I love it
@8upernova81
@sandra adefila unnecessary. Just be glad the man discovered the music lol
@Cassykakes
@8upernova what are you talking about ??? clearly I’m glad he’s getting noticed reading is fundamental 😂😂😂 girl reread what I said and GIRL BYE!
