Amapiano accommodates gun-finger-throwing lovers of all things untz untz and waist-whining fans of Afrobeats and dancehall equally. This made it the perfect sound for at-home, simulated club nights in lockdown – since all the diversity and excitement of a venue-hopping night out can be found in a single, well-curated amapiano playlist. Thus, the music has been introduced to the internet as an entire dance culture, with quick-step moves and body-popping that’s just as fun to watch as the tunes are to listen to.
DJ Stokie’s latest track ‘Awukhuzeki’ maintained its impressive run on the Official South African Charts (TOSAC), ascending to the Top 10 locally and internationally at the moment. TOSAC recognises digital streaming numbers of singles. The charts are an aggregation from Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer and YouTube Music compiled by BMAT Music Innovators, the global music technology leaders. Chart week is tracked from Friday to Thursday.
The success solidifies DJ Stokie’s position as an undeniable force in the growing global amapiano movement. The artist recently treated his fans to an exhilarating musical experience with his latest album titled Journey Continues, which showcases his signature sound and features a seamless blend of deep basslines, catchy melodies and infectious rhythms.
With every move he makes, DJ Stokie proves he’s one of the best Disc Jockeys on the scene. His latest album is titled it “My Journey Continues.” The album houses 16 tracks and features contributions from Murumba Pitch, Sir Trill, Spumante, Ben Da Prince, Nkosazana Daughter, Ommit, Sobzeen, Zee_nhle, Dlala Regal, MaWhoo, Oscar Mbo, Mpura, Almighty SA, Tycoon, MKeyz, and more.
