Afrobeats

Afrobeats is a vibrant musical genre that sprouted in Nigeria in the late 1990s, blending traditional African sounds with a dash of hip hop and dancehall to keep it spicy. Characterised by infectious rhythms, catchy melodies, and lyrics that often make you want to dance whether you know the moves or not, it’s the musical equivalent of a sun-soaked holiday with a side of palm trees. It’s so catchy that it’s not uncommon for someone who’s never set foot outside of a rainy council estate to suddenly believe they can vogue like a pro at an African wedding.
