Before COVID19, everyone was free to do the things they love and what makes them happy, including attending parties, going to clubs or even karaoke bars and places with live music. As local guides, people trust us to recommend the most happening places and the best things to do in a particular location on Google maps. In the past months, a lot of awesome virtual meetups have occurred with so much knowledge exchange, and this meetup has the same objective of keeping us informed about other lifestyles but this time, with so much fun to catch! Music has a strong effect on emotions. There is something about music that seems to bring us closer to each other and help us come together as a community. On a quest to keep learning and exchanging our cultures and lifestyle as Local Guides, music is inevitable when the word “culture” is included and so we would be focusing on Afrobeats this time.

@Sagir You will find this song on the mixer, I hope you are ready to sing for us in Hausa. That is actually very nice music, my lineage from my mom Fulani and dad Serahule /Soninke both have this type of singing which is just beautiful
