“The combination of musical feeling and the best lyrics make East African music the best of the continent,” Tanzanian singer-songwriter Nandy tells Apple Music. With a sonically rich discography that incorporates R&B, bongo flava, and touches of amapiano, Nandy is well-versed in a variety of sounds, and her Mali Safi playlist is a roundup of similarly minded artists, including Tunda Man, Anjella, Vanessa Mdee, Harmonize, Country Boy, Linah, and more.
