Amapiano is form of House and dance music which like Afrobeats before it, is breaking into the global mainstream from Africa.
Speaking on how she started, the star said: “I started off as a dancer. Whichever sound would blow up in South Africa, I’ve always been in it. And as a dancer at that time, you obviously need to catch up with the music scene and that’s what got me interested. I started dancing to Amapiano, and it was a vibe. And then, I blew up through a viral dance video. And I just decided to go into music so I can change the dance space and culture for us to have more opportunities and to dance to my own music – so I can travel the world.”
