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 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

Music is my #1 go to for therapy, healing, motivation, influence, mood, energy shifts, and escape!
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😍
My favorite song right now ‘Umlilo’ which means fire in Zulu, is a collab with South African female artist MaWhoo-check it out!👇🏽
