According to the self-acclaimed King of ‘Azonto,' Gasmilla, the dance has been evolving for some time now, and a time has come for it to be considered a music genre.
“Azonto has moved through all the phases of creating a genre. Hip-hop was all about dance back then and soon a sound was created for the dance and after that, there was a movement and a genre was created out of the dance move. So for me, Azonto has gone through all these phases and it is about time we made it into a genre”, he said.
