Afrobeats
Afrobeats is a very popular genre in Africa originating from Nigeria. In recent years it has become popular outside of Africa.
I prefer the Afrobeats from about 3 years ago and earlier as almost all the more recent Afrobeats songs mix with the also trending Amapiano genre.
You can really get a feel of original Afrobeats if you listen to songs from 2020 and earlier.

Post-hardcore
I started listening to rock music when I was 14 years old, especially post-harcore rock.
I like it because it's that nice middle ground between hard rock genres and soft rock genres.

Gospel Music
I started listening to Gospel music after I got saved im 2019. It really helps you feel closer to God. Gospel artists
have this amazing talent of being able to express emotions and gratitude towards God through music.
Gospel music can be in any genre, even rock!
