I LOVE MY AFRICAN GIRLS

Mujo by SK is a lively Afrobeats song, which Mic-L recently covered in a more mellow version. His beautiful singing and Yus' lovely verse about African girls make this tune memorable. It's refreshing to hear black boys celebrating black girls and not boying us for once. May this continue, in the mighty name of Melanin. Amen.

btw can we ap(pree)ciate the pengtings dancing pls thanks,
and acknowledge the humanity of black boys pls thanks
