South Africa has a well-known flair for developing its own musical genres: from the catchy tunes of Kwaito to the heady jams of โGqomโ, December anthems are almost always home-grown. Now, the distinctive lock-drum hook and irresistible sounds of Amapiano are taking centre stage. Itโs a genre with a massive following both locally and internationally, but here at home, Amapiano isnโt just a music sensation, itโs a lifestyle. So, whatโs behind the rise of the so-called โYanosโ? Carte Blanche heads into the studio booth.
