Anatii, a renowned South African rapper, has recently been spotted in the studio cooking up a new sound: amapiano.<\/p>\n

This move has raised some eyebrows, as many fans know him for his rap skills. However, this isn’t the first time that a rapper has blended the two genres together and found success.<\/p>\n

Despite some social media users poking fun at the rapper for his new direction, others have come to his defense. One user wrote, “A man has to pay bills at the end of the day… If your Gucci is not selling, you can bring in some Ellesse to stay afloat.” This comment highlights the practicality of a musician needing to adapt and evolve in order to continue making a living in the industry.<\/p>\n

Another user wrote, “We are no longer have hip hop artist in SA,” indicating that the shift towards amapiano is a sign of a broader change in the South African music scene. However, this statement is not entirely accurate, as there are still many talented hip hop artists in the country.<\/p>\n

A third comment read, “He sounds like some an up and coming R&B or gospel artist,” suggesting that Anatii’s new sound may be a fusion of multiple genres. This is a testament to the artist’s versatility and ability to experiment with different sounds and styles.<\/p>\n

In conclusion, the video of Anatii making a song with Yumb has sparked a conversation among fans and critics about the future of South African music. While some may view the move to amapiano as a departure from his roots, others see it as a natural evolution for an artist who is always pushing boundaries and trying new things. It’s important to remember that every artist is entitled to experiment and push their limits in order to grow and evolve, and that’s what makes music so exciting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
