Colombian superstar Shakira has revealed her deep appreciation for Afrobeats and her admiration for Nigerian artist Burna Boy and rising South African star Tyla.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ singer shared her eclectic taste in music, describing it as honest and real. She expressed her passion for African music, stating, “If I could explain my taste in music in three words, I would say eclectic, honest, and real.”
Shakira continued, “I love anything Afrobeats. I like Tyla, I like Burna Boy, anything Afrobeats. But I love Burna so much.”
Shakira's affinity for African music is not new. She famously sampled the song ‘Zangaléwa’ by the Cameroonian band Golden Sounds for her 2010 South Africa World Cup official song, ‘Waka, Waka (This Time For Africa),’ which became a global hit.
Her endorsement of artists like Burna Boy and Tyla underscores the growing influence and popularity of Afrobeats and African music on the global stage.
