Harnessing the pulse of African beats: Kabusa Oriental Choir’s New Release
The vibrant heart of Nigeria's Federal Capital Territory is home to a musical sensation that's making waves across global platforms – the Kabusa Oriental Choir. This group is renowned for transforming popular hits into mesmerising choral renditions, and they've done it again with their latest release, 'Tshwala Bam'. This song isn't just a track; it's a cultural phenomenon. It first took TikTok by storm and now the choir has given it a unique twist.
Kabusa Oriental Choir was set up in 2019 by Austin Chinemezu Nwamara, who had a vision. They started off by doing covers that went viral and have since evolved into creating original pieces that really resonate with their audience. Their work, like the thought-provoking "The Corona Song" and the upbeat "Valentine is Coming," shows how they can mix entertainment with meaningful messages.
The song "Tshwala Bam" is a great example of the choir's creativity. It blends elements of Afro-pop, Afro-fusion, and Amapiano with traditional choral music really well. The result is a great piece that appeals to both young audiences and traditional music fans.
As the Kabusa Oriental Choir continues to grow, with over 400k monthly listeners and a strong following on platforms like Twitter and Instagram, they not only celebrate African culture but also push the boundaries of what choral music can achieve in the modern music landscape.
