Kabusa Oriental Choir Brings Commanding Choral Arrangements to its Interpretation of South African Pop Banger “Tshwala Bam”

Kabusa Oriental Choir hails from the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria known for creative, choir adaptations of popular songs. “Tshawala Bam” was and is a 2024 TikTok viral sensation by South African duo TitoM & Yuppe. Kabusa Oriental Choir turn the relatively pulsating dance pop song very much of its time and place into something that feels slightly more traditional without sacrificing the vitality of the original and its fantastic low end. This version of the song expands upon the vocal possibilities inherent in the song and gives it an even more celebratory spin with multiple voices dropping in to switch up the flavor and tenor throughout further proving the song’s adaptability to multiple contexts and interpretations as evidenced by the more conventional production style remixes of the song that have already come about.
