“AB is known for his habitual use of classic samples to give his sound a unique 70’s and 80’s feel. His repertoire includes hits sampling artists from the Motown era and beyond. However his use of samples is not limited to overseas icons as he also does justice to hits from the Sophiatown generation like Letta Mbulu and Caiphus Semenya. Some people are cynical when they get told that he did the first forver young by jayz on his charts. Some music pundits have compared AB’s artistry and production skills to those of US’ Kanye West and Pharrel Williams. They wonder how loony he’ll go behind a G-Series if he was afforded the opportunity to work behind such a celebrated sound board. “The advantage that AB has is that he sings quite well too. So ontop of being an award-winning hitmaker he also provides hooks to musicians”, adds Malomane. AB’s other advantage is being an Afrikan where music is part of the cultural heritage and every season – pain, joy, excitement and trauma.
