Not a big fan.

I prefer congolese music, RnB and zouk.
The BEST MUSIC from Africa. Ndombolo, Soukous, Rhumba. The best African Music was released between the 70's and early 2000's sonically.

The real Afrobeat sound is from Fela Kuti.

The problem with Afrobeats is that it lacks any acoustic instrumentation nor has any proper basslines to keep a person's ear engaged. Most of it's just looped beats.

Every time a thread like this comes up I always gotta knock sense into y’all because half y’all ears are broken

Tell me which of these songs I posted remotely even sound the same. Are you nikkas hard on hearing?
Tell me the latest afrobeats song and I promise you can’t because none of you are even up to date with the current sound.

Asake blends Fuji music with amapiano, flavour does ogene, nsg does uk afroswing, and burna And wiz do afrofusions. what are y’all even on

The fact nikkas in here said with chest that all afrobeats sound the same is laughable. Please tell me if any of these songs sound alike. Mfers ears are broken or they have bad tastes probably a combo of the 2

You're right that the good stuff is usually keep in the vault.

A lot lot of electronic genres either use MIDI programmation or they'll hire a bass guitarist. The best stuff of any genres is always raw.

This song below is one of the best songs from this genre


The best Afrobeats artist is Wizkid. He adds complex instrumentation such as percussion, maracas, shakers, guitars and sometimes has a live band. Afrobeats is easy to make from FL Studio. Anyone with a computer make the beat but without any complex sound or music theory, it's just gonna be a generic sound loop.

There's a genre from Ivory Coast called "Coupe Decale" that's far more better than Afrobeats.

afrobeats it’s still apredominantly west African genre, what language do you think they would speak . Most of the shyt don’t sound good in English. A lot of you are really white ppl in black bodies. Again the rest of the world ain’t America my boy. There’s a reason fela kutis best songs sounds good in Yoruba and not English. That was the voice of the people.

This is one of the most generic songs of the genre. Again you’re not really intune with the culture if you think this was the best song in afrobeats. I can literally come up with a Way better list
