Planet Afropop: African Beatmakers Part 1: Kooldrink and Pierre Kwenders

Behind every Afropop YouTube megahit and dancefloor sensation is a producer—a beat-maker striving to imagine the next big thing, essentially inventing the future. In part one of this two-part podcast, we meet Kooldrink, the producer who launched South African superstar Tyla, and Pierre Kwenders of the Moonshine Afro-house collective in Montreal, and hear their thoughts on making African hits in 2025. Produced by Banning Eyre.
