Hi there! I'm from South Africa.
Well, most of the people I know listen to more international music, the 'trending' songs or something simular.
I could be wrong, but the 'National' songs are mostly in Afrikaans here is South Africa. It's more the other countries like Zimbabwe, Swaziland, Lesotho and all of South Africa's neighbouring countries that have the other African languages and songs.
I guess artists like Steve Hofmeyr, Karen Zoid, Francios van Coke and Bok van Blerk are quite popular among the older generations here. While us younger generations listen more international artists like Ariana Grande or Ed Sheeran.
I guess nothing special really.
This probably isn't as helpful as you probably would have wished, but I'm just speaking from what I know.
But good luck on the project or whatever your class is doing! ^^
Can somebody from South Africa tell me some things about the music in the country?I'm doing a schoolwork for the Black Consciousness Day,and my class will do a dedication to South Africa.But I want someone who lives in the country to answer my questions,like...Wich musics are making sucess lately?What about the old musics?Do you guys listen more to national musics or international ones?
thanks <3
