Triller Announces New Specially-Curated Playlist for Africans
Triller has announced the launch of Pan-African and localised country playlists specifically curated for fans in Africa.
With these first-ever genre-discovery playlists, the platform intends to bring an entirely new experience to its African users while consolidating and expanding its already well-established presence on the continent.
In a statement by the company, Triller noted that the playlist, which is available throughout Africa, offers fans an exciting array of lists to choose from, with Pan African-focused Akwaaba, Amapiano, African Drill, Gospel, and Bonjour leading the pack.
The playlists, which provide access to a mind-blowing panorama of genres, moods, and experiences, are specifically curated to provide a 100% immersion in African music and to get users’ creative juices flowing.
Three other Pan African playlists bring a more genre-specific experience. Bonjour is the go-to playlist for all of the very latest urban French-language hits and also features breakthrough collabs between francophone and anglophone artists from Africa and the diaspora. Similarly, Amapiano features all of the rising stars from this South African-born genre as well as a burgeoning number of Amapiano genre collabs from across the continent.
African Drill, on the other hand, is dedicated to one of Africa’s biggest and fastest-growing genres, the Drill Movement. This is the place to discover Drill/Rap made in Africa by Africans – from Ghana to Nigeria and down to South Africa.
A Gospel playlist features in the lineup for Nigeria too, where it joins the Lamba and new wave playlists. Lamba is dedicated to the music that originated in the streets of Lagos but is now topping charts throughout Africa, while new wave gives adventurous fans the chance to discover the future of African music through a new wave of stars.
