A melodic and upbeat production that focuses on the viral dance craze of the same name, Shaku Shakuhas exploded over the world after originating in Nigeria - with millions taking to YouTube to replicate the choreography of the dance move. Hailing from the Ivory Coast, Afro B uses French throughout on a track tinged with influences from all corners of the Afrobeats genre; including dancehall, reggae and R&B.

A key figure of the Afrobeat sound that continues to surge in global popularity, Afro B recently dropped his Afrowave 2 mixtape, a 9-track showcase of his slick sounds which follows on from his 21-track 'MOVES' documentation, a profile of the Afrobeats genre, released in 2017.

Starting his musical journey with a residency at a Jamaican club called NW10, the Londoner has since moved into producing, highlighting his talents as one of the industry's most exciting curators around.Afro B has enjoyed a meteoric rise, channeling Ghanaian, Congolese, and French - on account of his Ivorian heritage - as influences. The South Londoner, who was also announced as one of Capital Xtra'spresenters, is heavily supported by the likes of Westwood, MistaJam, and Toddla T, and has become one of the scene's most respected talents.
