Afrobeats Hits
Playlist - 100 Songs
On “Dem Dey,” taken from Burna Boy’s just-released eighth album, No Sign of Weakness, the African Giant proves impervious to whatever gossip and hearsay is being directed towards him. It contributes to a core message of the album, which is that he’ll stay true to himself regardless of what happens or what is said around him. “They say in the streets in Nigeria…like, ‘Dem go whine you, but no panic,’” he tells Apple Music’s Ebro Darden. “It means they’ll play with you, but don’t panic.” Hear “Dem Dey” on Afrobeats Hits, the home of today’s biggest and best tracks from the genre that blends the sounds of West African culture with everything from rap and dancehall to R&B and house.
