Apple Music announces the next Africa Now DJ Mix featuring Spaceship Billy

Apple Music has expanded its flagship African Music playlist and radio show, Africa Now, to include a new monthly DJ Mix created exclusively for the platform.

The next DJ to create an Africa Now DJ Mix is Burna Boy’s DJ, British-Nigerian DJ Spaceship Billy, who blends Afrobeats, Amapiano, and Afrofusion, and effortlessly combines rich African rhythms and melodies to create a highly textured sonic journey.

“I am very excited to be part of Apple Music’s journey in focusing on African Music and putting it as a focus part of their platform,” Spaceship Billy tells Apple Music. “I enjoyed myself whilst making this mix and to me that’s what music is all about expressing yourself in a way words can’t.”

As a part of Burna Boy’s  Spaceship Collective, Spaceship Billy spent years hard at work honing his talents before becoming the official DJ for the Grammy Award-winning artist and global phenomenon.. This exclusive mix that he has created for Apple Music is a genre-defying treat that also features contributions from British-Nigerian gospel and smooth jazz saxophonist, BishopSaxz.
