Afrobeats and Amapiano Waya Pass: Nasty C Tok Wetin E Feel About Hip-hop

South African Rapper Nasty C

Yo, make we yarn about something wey dey totori my mind lately – the music game! Nasty C, wey we sabi well for South Africa as one of di hip-hop kings, don talk im own mind on why Afrobeats and Amapiano dey burst brain pass Hip-hop. E talk say e believe say these two genres get that original fire wey Hip-hop dey lack nowadays.

You fit ask, why Nasty C feel dis way? E say Afrobeats and Amapiano dey come with that real African essence, wey dey show for their use of live instruments and sweet melodies. For Nasty C mind, Hip-hop don dey over-rely on sampling other people's beats, and e talk say na wahala.

As e put am for one video wey dem dey play everywhere for X, Nasty C talk say, "Afrobeats and Amapiano dey jolly pass Hip-hop. When we yarn truth, e sure me say e no get two ways about am, guy.

"I know say sometimes, we go hear song wey dem use autotune sotey dem dey repeat the same nonsense plenty times. Dem no dey talk any sense. But when e reach live instruments, original melody, and artists wey sabi sing, my guy, dat na correct music, bro. Their music dey evergreen.

"Hip-hop, e dey sample plenty. No be say I no appreciate Hip-hop – I dey hip-hop fan die, I go rep am till I kpai. But make we yarn truth, for Hip-hop, e be like say everybody just dey fake like dem get money, dey ball, and dey form gangster. I don tire to dey hear pipo dey sing about spending for songs. I just dey reason, 'Bros, you no dey spend anything. Just shut up na.'"
