An Arab woman living in Dubai has fallen head over heels for South African music after attending Amapiano concerts in the United Arab Emirates. The video shared on her TikTok page @amadianoo on 3 November 2025 showed the woman sitting in front of huge skyscrapers while sharing her love for SA artists and the genre. She shared that she had attended events where South African Amapiano musicians performed in Dubai and Abu Dhabi over the weekend, and the experience left her wanting to move to Mzansi.

In the video, the woman had two questions for South Africans. Her first question was whether people in SA ever sleep, and the second was whether someone could adopt her so she could live in South Africa. She explained that they had South African Amapiano artists who came for two days in a row to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. The lineup included Ego Slimflow, Boohle, Masterpiece, Khalil Harrison and Mr Pilato. The woman was blown away by the energy and vibe at the performances. She said someone needs to adopt her and take her to South Africa because she loves it there and feels like she belongs. She ended by saying South Africa has incredible vibes.
