A new amapiano mix was just released by Shay Who, Afrobeats producer and event promoter in Malta under NOOK and Afro Island.
It was recorded at Underground Sound headquarters to the backdrop of the Valletta Grand Harbor in Floriana, Malta.
Shay Who leading the charge with his new amapiano mix
Shay Who is established as a key to the Afro scene in Malta. He is a primary factor for Afro taking off on the island, and now he is now leading the charge of amapiano.
He is active through his event and lifestyle brand Afro Island, throwing quality parties throughout the year. The summer events are particularly steamy with a strong afro-dedicated crowd consistently attending.
This amapiano mix is another example of him setting the foundation of the current scene.
