🎧 TSA Playlist – 12 September 2025

Standouts include HeviMass & Geo Matic’s motivational "Go Getter", the soulful "Drowning" by Chidoo, and Buya Musiq’s Kenyan gem "Peninah". South Africa closes strong with slick collaborations from Bhizozo X Mr Gamelisha, and 1JR Music featuring Rut Petersen.

📈 TSA RADIO CHARTS – SHOW #178 (12 Sept 2025)
Three’s a trend. For the third week in a row, the Top 3 singles on TSA Radio remain unchanged, solidifying their hold on the airwaves.
🔥 At #1, Kronan & Makadem continue their reign with "Maisha"—a bold Afro-electronic debut that went straight to the top without ever hitting the TSA Playlist first.
Zimbabwe’s Nutty O holds tight at #2 with the still-unstoppable "Too Much", and Kenya’s Young Smart’s "Mumbi" keeps hearts stirred at #3.
No shakeups yet—but with Africa’s sound evolving fast, how long can this trio hold the line?
