Nothing exemplifies true African love like Afropop does. On Stonebwoy’s new “Wame”, the Ghanaian dancehall singer brings along South African hip-hop king Cassper Nyovest for a song imploring a love interest to marriage (for context: the word ‘Wame’, means marry me in Twi). Hearing StoneBwoy breath life to the highlife-influenced Afropop instrumentals, then having Cassper Nyovest counterbalance the track with a rap verse is a show of the universality of the language of love across the continent, whether it’s spoken in Twi or Zulu.
