Searching for love may not be as elusive as you say.
For Valentine’s Day, global music streaming service Deezer and Mzansi’s own Ami Faku matched up to release a personalised ‘Real Love’ playlist. The exclusive playlist features some of Ami's personal favourites and emotional songs that she adores the most.
Hailing from the Eastern Cape, the modern Afro Soul artist has made her mark on the South African music scene with her hit singles Love Drunk, Ubuhle Bakho and Ndikhethe Wena. Ami made her strongest impression in her home country with the powerful single Into Ingawe, the second most streamed Deezer track of 2019.
The songstress who released her debut album Imali last year, has also collaborated with music heavyweights including; Blaq Diamond, Amanda Black, 37 MPH and Sun-El Musician.
