• Each participant of the Afri-tunes Christmas Event is invited to compose or present a cover of a Christmas song in any native language (including English) of his or her choice.

• Give your best and don’t frown while singing...

• Express your song through any African musical genre or style: Afrobeat, Afro-Jazz, Amapiano, Highlife, Makossa, Soukous, Sebene, Fuji, Tungba, Juju, Ogene, Apala, Palm Wine Groove... etc.

OR

• Express your song through any genre which has elements or influences of African tunes in it: Reggae, Samba, Salsa, Calypso, Rumba, Afro-Venezuelan music, Blues and Gaita Zuliana... etc.
• Videos should be exclusively for the Afri-tunes Event

NB: For instrumentalists who would play without singing, try, if you can, to include a YouTube link to the same song sung by a choir so that listeners may more readily connect with the tune.

---

• If you wish to present other African tunes in-line with our weekly contest, feel free to use the title AFRI-TUNES WEEK 41 and #afrwk41 tag instead.

---

Always remember to spread the love, the calmness, the smiles, the culture, the songs and the dance associated with African tunes.
