Chicco & Pabi Cooper Collaborate With Barcelona x Spotify.From house to gqom to amapiano, in all these bustling, hyperproductive scenes, the rise to fame of many of these chosen ones has been as quick as their omission. The genre introduced to us Ch’cco.
Chicco and Pabi Cooper are flying the country’s flag high and the stars couldn’t be more proud of themselves. The Wag n Bietjie hitmaker is one of a few African stars who are the faces of Spotify’s partnership with popular football team, Barcelona. The musicians have all been inducted into the recently Spotify Africa’s Barça African Connect playlist.
Blowing up to the mainstream in 2021 with the now classic bacardi-infused amapiano hit “Nkao Tempela”, the former rapper has managed to capitalize on his first breakthrough to increase his air of curiosity and expectations.
Ch’cco’s lazy and smooth flow, mixing American hip-hop swagger with strong Pretorian cultural references, have become a trademark. With a few features and only four (four!) tracks to his official name since 2019, his latest “Pele Pele” already a hit, the vocalist has imposed himself as South Africa’s new golden boy, from filling up venues in his country to touring Europe and collaborating with international artists like Nigeria’s Teni and Tanzania’s Marioo.
