This is South Africa’s hottest music according to YouTube’s Music Charts

YouTube this week announced its new music charts portal, which allows users — and generally interested folk — to gauge which tracks, videos and artists are most popular on the platform on a given week in 44 countries.

It’s awesome, and you should give it a gander at some point in the day. But if you don’t have the time, and are looking for something hot to listen to right now, YouTube also has a few charts just for South Africa and the playlists to go along with them.

No ad to show here.
