Sunday Morning Amapiano Vibes-Skyf Skyf
Happy Sunday!
Enjoy this delightful Sunday morning vibe with me, as I play 'Skyf Skyff' on repeat. When I say on repeat, I truly mean that I just can’t get enough of it; it makes my entire day so much brighter. The way it keeps me in a mood that no one can shake, encourages me to dance and sing along to the same song, transforms my point of view and outlook on certain things. In this moment, nobody can tell me anything – I'm truly wiggin’ out. Amapiano, baby! Let’s get it and embrace this joyful energy together!

Karibu Tanzania!
This song reminds me of all of the good times that I had in Tanzania. (And many more that will come.) It's like a celebration tune!
As I listen, I reminisce! Ohhhhhhh Tanzania! Nakukumbuka sana sana!
While In Tanzania, I felt like I was at my forever home. Almost everywhere I went, I was welcomed with open arms. Even at the airport! Even with the police officials!
One of the airport staff that I had just met upon departure, was loudly calling my name. I turned around wondering, who else knows me in Tanzania?? I was happy to see him with another staff member smiling and waving at me😄
When I spoke the language, airport staff were both surprised and happy to hear. “You speak swahili?”.
I say, “Ndio kidogo!” … Tanzanians also call me Tiffan, not *Tiffany) I learned to accept that many words in the Swahili language do not have the y sound.
Oh my god! I love Tanzania so much🇹🇿🇹🇿Words cannot even explain. This song makes me wanna pack my bags and leave right now. The music, the land, the spirit, the energy, the people, the respect, the cultures, the coconut trees, the language, the Ugali😋mimi dada’s na kaka's that even though we just met, seemed like we had known each other for years! I even miss the fish smells at the fish market😄

During my 1 month stay in Tanzania the sounds of South African Amapiano had already swept through the streets of Dar! It was heavily apparent almost everywhere that I went, that Tanzanians were diggin’ that log drum! I had not even been to the Tanzanian club scene yet, but while lodging at Serene Hotel in Mbezi, Amapiano had almost taken over the night at Pit-stop Bar & Grill. I was excited to be in the presence of the mixture of Bongo Flava and Amapiano.

I found the first South African-House music video, and artists that I had heard a few years back! I have been trying to find this song for the longest, but me being new to South African music, I could not remember the name of either the artists or song. While searching online a few months ago, getting all caught up in my newly discovered love, Amapiano❤️I finally found top music producer Heavy-K-I knew his name was Heavy something??🤷🏾♀️🙃
Read-DJ Tabasamu My Soul Floats in Afro Beats!
While trying to remember the song ‘Sweetie,’ I could picture the female artist in my head and different scenes in the video, but I did not even know her name….but today I finally found THIS SONG and video!
I remember some years back, Nokwazi's powerful, commanding voice immediately pulled me in, along with her strong presence in the video. (South Africa's female artists are the shiznit!) I played the song several times that day, but for some reason, I didn’t really go back to listening to Afro-House on a regular. (This was also around the time when I was listening to a lot of Nigerian artists)
I was not aware of who, what, or when this African-House movement started, all I knew was where. Also at the time, I did not know of any other South African producers that was putting out this type of music, so it was the only African-House song that I ever heard, up until a few months ago!
(Well, really, I had listened to another collaboration by these two artists, but ‘Sweetie’ was the song that I liked the best.)
So I was actually watching the beginning of what is now a powerful music movement, South African-House, and didn’t even know it!
And you already know, this song is on repeat right now, as I am writing!💃🏾Well sweetie sweetie!…Ahhhhh! Well sweetie sweetie! Ahhhhh! We lavo lavo!..Ahhhh! We lavo lavo! Ahhhhh!

Nigerian artist Asake is fire! The song I currently have in rotation and on repeat as I am writing this short blog post is ‘What's up my G’ from his brand new album Work of Art.
Like many of Asake's songs, ‘What's up my G’ features an ensemble of symphony, afro tribal beats, Yoruba language, South African kwaito, amapiano, jazz, harmony, and choir like background vocals. Your gonna love him!
The song ‘Ngcono Bang'yeke’ (better let them go) has been on repeat with me for a month-and I know that I will continue to have it on repeat for many months to come!

South African Kwaito and Amapiano has been making me feel some type of way lately. I am thinking about planning a trip to South Africa just to hit up the music scene!

DJ Tene' Tabasamu-My Soul Floats in Afro-Beats!
Definition of my soul floating in Afrobeats:
When an African song, and/or beat makes me feel as if my whole being is floating within the energy of the music frequency, and I don’t wanna leave…So therefore certain particular songs are on repeat-all day, all week, or for a full month!
When I can't stop listening to a particular song-my soul is embedded in the sound

When I can't stop listening to a particular song-my soul is embedded in the sound waves and the energy of the voice/voices, and the unique way in which the song track and instruments are arranged.
A good Afrobeat can disrupt any plans that I may have, because my whole being is fully immersed in these sounds! I am taken away by the voice of the artist-and by the way the artist croons to a specific part of the song. Afrobeats literally takes me to another planet, or transport me to whoever I want to be with, and wherever I want to go.
Different styles of AfroBeats
Afrobeats consist of West African sounds and artists.

Bongo Flava
Bongo comes from the kiswahili word ubongo, which means brain. Bongo Flava is a mixture of Tanzanian cultural beats, reggae, hip-hop, Afro-beats, and Arabic.
South African Kwaito House
South African house music consists of repetitive, rhythmic, and euphoric 80's house beats, combined with Zulu, and addictive modern African beats.

Check out my playlist and get carried away by Afro tunes. You’ll never be the same!
Warning: Africans are on a whole notha energy level! You won’t be able to sit still, you will be forced to get up and dance, your body will move in ways it never moved before…, and if you have somewhere to be, you probably won't make it!
PS: It’s the accents and foreign language for me-also when they switch from singing in English to their native language, and vise versa😍
