South African dancer turned singer Kamo Mphela is set to perform in Kenya later in the week on April 2, 2022.
Speaking about her reception in Kenya that year, the Nkulunkulu singer stated: “The fact that Kenya is vibing to Amapiano makes me happy because it gives us a chance to be international superstars apart from an African thing. The fact that it’s our own sound that we are presenting to the world, it’s not like Hip Hop Afrobeat that we are taking from others.”
