The week is winding down, the weekend is calling, and you know what else is? Salaries! It’s time to relax, get into the right vibe, and, of course, refresh your playlist. And if you’re thinking Amapiano, you’re already on the right track.
Amapiano, the South African sound that has completely taken over your speakers, dance floors, and social media feeds (especially TikTok), is here to set the mood. The name itself, meaning “the pianos” in Zulu, is a nod to the high-pitched melodies that give it its signature feel.
Since shaking up South Africa’s music scene in the early 2010s, Amapiano has only grown bigger, dominating clubs, house parties, and viral dance challenges. And with new hits dropping constantly, the bangers just keep coming.
