I Made 3 Amapiano Songs in 2 Hours (FL Studio Challenge)

As a songwriter, I don't usually sit around programming intricate drum loops—I focus on the melodies, the chords, and the overall vibe so that beat makers can do the rest. Today, I wanted to see how fast I could catch the wave of my FIRST Amapiano track in FL Studio, and I ended up walking away with 3 completely distinct song ideas in just 2 hours!

In this video, I’m taking you through my fast-paced songwriting and melody-building process. I break down how I use FL Studio to quickly flesh out chord progressions and hooks that give producers the perfect foundation to build a massive track around. If you're an artist, singer, or songwriter looking to improve your speed or try your hand at the South African Amapiano sound, this challenge is for you.

Watch until the end to hear all 3 final melodic concepts and let me know in the comments which vibe you would write to!

"Any beat makers in the building? Which of these 3 melodic concepts would you want to finish and cook up the drums for? Drop your thoughts below!"
