@Qaqaamba: You are the one engaging in edit warring. I did not revert the edits you made to the article. You reverted the edit I made to the article and I reverted yours. You then proceeded to reverting my edit for the second time and had the balls to leave bullshit messages on my talk page. I will report you if you leave a message on my talk page again.  Versace1608  14:08, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Versace1608
  1. "West African influences" not "West African sounds" -
  2. Afropop is not a genre. Although often tagged. labeled or listed as a "genre", music or songs still need to be further classified as into exactly which genre/s.
  3. House is a genre of electronic dance music with 100s if not 1000s of sub-genres. In South Africa predominant house music sub-genres are afro house and amapiano as per the article's context as well as listening to the song , the genre is definitely not amapiano or any other genre, it predominantly appears to be, afro house.

"Their come-back single Khona, last year’s biggest Afrohouse tune, led to a multitude of collaborations they have recorded with Nigerian, Tanzanian and Kenyan musicians with varying degrees of success. This one with Naija pop ’s current it-boy Davido" Qaqaamba (talk) 07:27, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
@Qaqaamba: It's good that you found a reliable source that classifies the song as an "Afro-house" track. I think you need to add this particular source to the article because I don't believe it is there.  Versace1608  13:50, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
