The First Amapiano Song Featuring Chris Brown Set To Drop This Friday. Amapino has transitioned from the underground, taken over mainstream broadcast, created household names and become the definitive sound for this era in South African music. In the short time since younger producers and DJs, mostly new to the industry have been moulding the future of the Amapiano sound and gaining recognition for it.
Christopher Maurice Brown is an American singer, songwriter, dancer, graffiti artist and actor. According to Billboard, Brown is one of the most influential and successful R&B singers ever, with several considering him the “King of R&B”. Chris Brown is now set to venture even deeper into the continent’s sounds as he features on the remix for Lojay and Sarz’s amapiano-afrobeats smash hit, “Monalisa”. The track will drop this Friday, and both Nigerian and South African artists are excited about the feature.
“Lojay is dropping Monalisa Remix with Chris Brown. The song might be the first Amapiano song to go global. The music scene is about to be interesting between South Africans and Nigerians. We own the sound now,” wrote Nigerian influencer Olamide.
