This comes after a Kenyan-based yanos fan posted a video of a group of Kenyans participating in the ‘Dakiwe Challenge’. See tweet:
The groundbreaking amapiano has permeated through Kenyan borders and shot right into the heart of Nairobi culture. Today, Kenya has evolved to a point where there are a plethora of cultures, and there is hardly a culture with a monopolised dominance. While amapiano is said to have originally sprung out in 2012, it was not until 2020 that it blew up the continent over with reported exponential increases in streams, downloads and overall consumption. As is characteristic of the Kenyan music scene, the reception to the genre has been utterly profound, with urban radio stations, recreational joints according Amapiano hits massive airplay.
