Latin music meets amapiano

DJ Phaphane, who had a gig at Zsongo Club in Spain, shared on his TikTok account how he mixed Puerto Rican merengue recording artist Elvis Crespo's 1998 classic Suavemente with South Africa's Khalil Harrison and Tyler ICU's 2023 hit song Jealousy.

Starting with Suavemente, the crowd sang the lyrics before grooving after the DJ added the signature amapiano beat as soon as the chorus played.

Jealousy then crept in with the crowd performing the dance moves that took the internet by storm. Shortly after, a saxophonist did his thing when he put a unique spin on the song.

The DJ showed gratitude to the people in the Spanish city, writing:

"Thank you, Madrid."
