Somehow forgot this thread existed, until paolo reminded me in the UK Rap/Grime thread.
Posting this as much for Latifah’s verse in Dutch as anything:

I've been really enjoying the route one lasciviousness of the Mostack album lately.

Wiley's making pop music again. It's OK I guess
― paolo, Tuesday, 13 August 2019 09:39 (four years ago) link
Wiley is also on the new Kida Kudz, which is more or less a follow-up to Ms Banks’s “Snack” (posted in The Other Thread), again produced by GuiltyBeatz:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7UhUyXEQR8Kida Kudz ft. Wiley • Bounce

“The Official UK Afrobeats Top 20 will be announced on BBC Radio 1Xtra on Sunday.“

Good development, although it’s too bad they stuck with the Afrobeats tag instead of Afropop. Curious as to what they are going to include on this chart, and what will be excluded, both for UK tracks and actual African tracks.I started listening to the NSG album but didn’t get all that far. I found the vocal interplay on some of the new tracks a bit messy and unfocussed, not like I remembered from the singles at all, they were real... bops. I should try again, maybe it was the wrong day.Loved this one tho:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeTmN9jb3ksNSG • MCMBonus point for being produced by Dutchman Yung Felix.

Here’s that first UK Afrobeats top 20:https://www.officialcharts.com/charts/afrobeats-chart/5 UK tracks (6 if I include Juls), of which 3 are in the top 5, one French track, the rest are Nigerian (most of them) or Ghanaian.Looks like they’re sticking with the UK definition of Afrobeats as music of West African origin (whereas in the US it appears to be a catch-all term for all African pop music), since they chose not to include Master KG’s “Jerusalema”, not even in the remix version with Burna, even though it would have undoubtedly qualified sales-wise.So time to post another NSG track, because “Grandad” is the number one:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEPdfVZsd0U

surprised there's no chat about this tiktok smash w/ its many remixes (unless I'm looking in the wrong place) - seems right up ilm's alley

think the new Headie One with international hitmakers Young T & Bugsey fits here:
