If
you’re looking for a little inspiration to test out these new features, YouTube
Music has launched the following playlists for South African users:
These
playlists show where South Africans’ musical hearts lie. Prince Kaybee is
dominating the Top
SA House playlist and
has landed 4 tracks from his latest album, Re Mmino, in the Top
Mzansi playlist. Nasty
C’s SMA is the most listened to track from a South African artist in 2019 (to
date) — which fans can find on the Top
Tracks playlist.
The
Top
Afrikaans playlist
features tracks from the latest albums dropped by Elandré and Speogwolf, plus
hits from Jo Black and more. Joyous Celebration currently has 8 tracks on the Top
SA Gospel and Soul
playlist. And on the Hip Hop front, the Top
SA Hip Hop playlist
includes YoungstaCPT and A-Reece.
YouTube
Music also has a Top
AmaPiano
playlist. AmaPiano is a South African
electronic music sub-genre that is growing rapidly in popularity. It’s a
relatively new movement in South African House music, and contains elements of
Jazz and Kwaito, with soulful piano and deep house foundations. Two AmaPiano
tracks feature on the Top
Tracks playlist – Kokota by Kaygee DaKing, Bizizi and Killa Kau,
and Shesha by Mthuda and Njelic — a firm sign of just how popular the genre is
becoming.
