While acknowledging that Amapiano originated in South Africa as a subgenre of home music within the mid-2010s, Samini insisted that the similarities between the 2 genres are too outstanding to disregard.
The Sweet Mistake crooner mentioned: “Today for those who do Azonto and also you add one or two issues to it, anyone will say it’s Amapiano, however Amapiano is one thing which is already South African.”
Despite the parallels, Samini emphasised the distinctiveness of Ghanaian music, asserting, “Amapiano is at all times going to be South African, so after all people tried with Azonto, on the finish, it’s Ghana that you’ll join it to.
So Amapiano can be related to South Africa, however going ahead, Ghana music stays Ghana music.”
