Major League Djz understands the assignment and power of amapiano sounds and is also considered a blueprint.
Major League DJz is a South African hip-hop/kwaito music band consisting of the twin brothers Bandile and Banele Mbere, a musical duo that really understands the sound of amapiano sounds.
Intro
Major League DJz are known for pioneering the South African house genre Amapiano and have been at the forefront of the sound since its inception. So what is Amapiano?
The sound of Amapiano, which was birthed in the townships of the Gauteng province, has taken the London and Nigeria music scene by storm.
The music of emancipation enjoyed by the youths of South Africa is now the theme of nights across the UK.
Since arriving in the UK, the twins have sold-out shows in London and Manchester, and the demand for a Major League is high.
This twin set is a dynamic duo bringing fresh energy to every platform they engage with.
Born in Boston, USA, the twins moved to South Africa after the apartheid era.

Being exposed to music at a very young age, Major League DJz were highly influenced by the sounds of Jazz and Hip-Hop music which ushered them into the entertainment industry in their early teens.
The duo’s vision is to use music to unify youth across Africa. Major League DJz aspire to play music for Africa by Africans in an attempt to change the perception of African Hip Hop.
The twins are well on their way to achieving this goal through their Urban Breeze events which currently occur weekly in the Alexandra township and have steered up a generous Hip Hop following in an otherwise House music-dominated territory.
The twins have hosted parties for the likes of 50 Cent, Akon, and Fat Joe, and have played alongside both local and international artists such as DJ Fresh, Euphonik, Roger Goode, DJ Trauma, DJ Drama, and DJ Woo Kid.
Major League DJz can be spotted at all the hottest clubs and parties across South Africa. Young, talented and good-looking, Major League DJz are the full package.
Official DJs for Khuli Chana and Soul Candi event organizers, the twins are at the forefront of the youth market.
Major League twins were highly influenced by hip-hop and jazz music, which welcomed them to the power and control of amapiano sounds.
The duo has completely revolutionized kwaito music into the modern urban culture of music.
