Amapiano meets Sofia

Dance like everybody's watching
While speaking to Briefly News, the Elsies River dancer shared his thoughts about which dance moves needed to be incorporated into amapiano songs.
"Honestly, amapiano comes with its own movements, and a different and diverse African feel. From a dancer's point of view, I feel you can incorporate any type of movement as long as you have rhythm."
Wesley also shared with the publication that he made the viral TikTok video in his hometown and hopes to uplift the youth and help them showcase their talents.
"Sometimes, I make TikTok videos with the kids from my area because they love to dance. I think I'm more comfortable within my area and the people surrounding me.
"They know me, and they know I dance. That leads to me having the confidence to enjoy dancing and that's the energy people receive."

Gents watch Sofia the First together
In another story, Briefly News reported about four friends who showed that they chose to watch an episode of Sofia the First instead of talking to women.
The mates also snacked on dry cornflakes and, for some reason, had cooking oil with them. Many social media users found the clip hilarious and filled the post's comment section with questions.
