Is this Makossa or Soukous?? Please help me…

[@silasjoe5820]

Please it depends on the location whatever name they called it like in Cameroon it's Makossa, in Congo it's Soukous while in Kenya it's Seben. My thought, though someone with a better understanding can clarify.
Thanks..

[@charlesjagun8592]

No matter the location, all these genres are played differently

Too sweet 😮

[@opeyxp]

Wow
I love ur work sir

[@MosesJoshua]

Appreciate you

[@franklinnwamkpa1628]

This argument will never end, makossa, seben or soukus, there are other genres also that are quite similar. You would need a course to know the difference. Who can help improve on our knowledge?

[@aboladeabidemi2254]

Lovely one there Sir.
Please permit me to ask you a personal question here. Are you from Nigeria or have you lived in a place called Osogbo, Osun state?

[@hopeolaleru8702]

Also sounds like kompa

[@Hertz-s5q]

I think the keyboard sound makes it kompa

[@TmVorteX724]

No

[@TmVorteX724]

Btw are you Haitian?

[@TmVorteX724]

Maybe mokosa

[@EverydayFunnyAdventures]

This is Makosa

[@SegunLive1999]

Yes makossa like in old Naija songs

[@kekekitoko]

I am Congolese and this is seben all the way

[@AngeBlessing-i9e]

Nice

[@WarriClinton]

🔥🔥Seben all the way

[@DunsinOyedepo-x7j]

Welldone sir

[@Culturelens]

Not a full soukous tho. Also the beat is also just a variation. Not that traditional thing. So, i will say its an hybrid.

[@SegunLive1999]

Yes it it’s and there just vibing more than actually playing

[@ademusicworld01]

Soukos of course

[@danielhyeladi7530]

soukous sir 🙌🙌🙌

[@malvinmusekiwa2574]

Soukous all day 🔥

[@damilareabiola]

Makossa has a fast tempo. So this is either seben or soukous

[@DANNYEL20122]

Makossa is seben.. Nigerians just started calling it Makossa cus of Awilo.. The music is from Congo..

[@stani11000]

Neither. Sounds like Zouk with Soukous bass guitar. Nice rhythm though ❤

[@Culkeys]

Soukous that bass is soukoing it

[@AmonMarc-Ariel]

is it not seben style ?

[@SegunLive1999]

Yes it like seben but more mixed with ndombolo that’s Nigerian Makossa

[@championzbeat]

This is more like sebene

[@PrettyDrB]

Soukus at its finest

[@PrettyDrB]

@2:18 to @2:24 for me.
