British-Nigerian singer, Darkoo, has claimed that women influenced the popularity of most songs and genres.

The Favourite Girl hitmaker explained that a lot of songs garnered buzz because women like them and often influenced men into liking or playing songs they like.

Appearing in a recent episode of the Comfortably Speaking podcast, Darkoo used the rise of the South African genre, Amapiano, as an example of a genre popularised by women, claiming it gained attention after women started dancing to its beats on social media.

“The truth of the matter is music, the world in general, is dictated by women. You play Sexyy Red in your car, why? Because you go and pick up one girl, you want her to enter your Lamborghini, what are you going to play? Are you going to play trap, trap in a Brando?

“A lot of music you like is because women like it. And if you listen to certain genres of music, I feel like women got into Amapiano first when they were doing dance trends on social media. Back then, people were looking at them like they were being weird. But now, men are f*cking with Amapiano,” she explained.
