Smirnoff South Africa has just launched its On To The Next Beat music series in the form of an EP. The 3-track EP brings together artists who under normal circumstances wouldn't collaborate because their music genres and sounds are so different.
The first artists to collaborate were Ami Faku and Wichi 1080. If you haven't watched their episode, you are seriously missing out. Ami's soulful sounds and Wichi's Hip Hop beat merge perfectly together to produce a beautiful love song called Sondela which Ami described perfectly."It's a love story. It is when you meet someone and let stuff go and you are just in it for what it is and you enjoy it."
