Watch! Aymos Drops An ‘AfroYano’ Single Sung In Tsonga. Amos ‘Aymos’ Shili is one of the most notable voices of amapiano to date, bringing soft wisdom to a genre many wrote off as hedonistic and overindulgent. He had been trying to break into the music industry for years. After introducing music at his high school and achieving some success with the school’s choir, he started being a vocalist for local house deejays while releasing his own music, to not much acclaim. He was on the brink of giving up on music when Mas Musiq came to his house to ask for the “Zaka” vocals after discovering the song on YouTube, and the rest is history.
Aymoss has proven beyond doubt as one of the best vocalist when it comes to the piano genre and has heavily linked with The Scorpion Kings, a group made up of Kabza De small and DJ Maphorisa, and Mas Musiq. Whilst Aymos is gearing up for his forthcoming project titled Yimi Lo (“this is me”), he has dropped yet another single titled “Risasekile” ft Masmusiq and Starquality to give his fans a glimpse of what the forthcoming project entails.
As much as he is well-known for being an amapiano and house music vocalist, the singer-songwriter is finally ready to show people what else he has to offer musically with his forthcoming project titled Yimi Lo (“this is me”). “I am not subject to a certain genre of music, I can literally do anything that I feel comfortable doing. I will give and serve people with all I know, all I’ve been meaning to give them all these years. I have included Afro-pop and amapiano songs,” he said.. “I purely want quality. I want the music to make me happy and fulfil me first, because I understand that I will have to perform whatever I do in the studio,” he added.
At first, Aymos didn’t like amapiano and the idea of his song getting remixed, but he quickly realised he had nothing to lose. “I write the music the same way as I did with Afro-pop, it’s just that now, what I’ve done is slightly different, it’s just adding a gimmick and repetition here and there. They just want to dance and have fun,” he said.
