Focalistic discusses amapiano collaboration with Rick Ross over IG live

South African music artist Focalistic discusses amapiano collaboration with American rapper Rick Ross.

In a live video with the South African musician, Rick Ross applauded Focalistic for his contributions to turning Amapiano into an international success. The two musicians touched base on a lot of things happening in Focalistic’s life and the prospect of Rick Ross visiting mzansi.

Asking the amapiano star about the experiences and the music culture of SA, Rick asked: “Tell me what the night life would be like?”

Focalistic replied,”The night life sounds exactly like the music. We are having fun. With the amapiano growing, we are having fun that is our gift to the world. We are making people understand we are a dancing nation. We are really about the fun.”

Rick Ross also asked about his amapiano collaborations with artists such as Davido, “How did you meet Davido?” he asked.

Focalistic explained that Davido and himself were in a club and a lot of his music was being played, which later got Davido’s attention and had him enquiring about who Focalistic was.

“Luckily I was in the club that night, so we met, and we have been tight since then,” he explained.

Taking to Instagram, Ba Strata hitmaker shared the live video on his page. In his caption, he wrote, “PRESIDENT YA STRAATA X BIGGEST BOSS @richforever. STRAATA KE STRATEGY.’

Fans, industry friends and supporters applauded him in the comment section:

“Danko Presidente! Beeeen gone!”

“The only president in south aaahhh(Africa) to do such missions, 012 to the world,” wrote another user.

Industry friend and music artist Pabi Cooper said: “I KNOW DA GOAT.”
