Will South Africa take nigerias spot in music?

[agenteaz]

nigeria have always been “the face” of african music internationally with afrobeats, however, i have a feeling that South Africa is going to take this spot soon. firstly Tyla has blown up internationally and likely opened the door for other South African artists. if you look at most nigerian music being released currently, it is still more popular internationally than South Africa HOWEVER it is heavily heavily inspired by South African amapiano while the afrobeats is somewhat starting to die off. so, I believe that in coming years South Africa will be the new face of african popular music rather than nigeria.
