Last month, NSG (A British Afroswing Collective) sang a Rock version of their single OT Bop and we loved it! For people like myself who love Rock music and Afrobeats / Afroswing, this was a match made in heaven. An unlikely pair however, a great power combo. The rhythmic bass makes us want to move our hips however, the electric guitar in this rendition makes us want to continue headbanging to the song. It seems that Rock music and Afro inspired music are pigeonholed to being just for a specific demographic but, this is further from the truth. As different types of music are becoming more accessible, this an amazing opportunity to merge genres and produce something enjoyable for everyone. Listen to the Rock version of OT Bop below:
