Afro House, Amapiano 2026 🇬🇧 ELYSIA THORNE - Roots in the Concrete 🇬🇧 (Vernandes Music Universe)

Amapiano & Afro House Music by Elysia Thorne as part of the Vernandes Music Universe A tireless, hypnotic Amapiano and Afro-House pulse combined with Elysia's crystal-clear English vocals. 🎧 Listen to it with headphones for a better experience. Born in London and deeply rooted in her father's Cape Verdean heritage, Elysia brings a wild, independent spirit and an astonishing vocal range to the global stage. After discovering the Afro-soulful music of her ancestor Yara Odara online, Elysia traveled to the cultural heart of Salvador da Bahia, Brazil. There she was discovered by Alana Vernandes, who took her straight to the studio to capture this magical musical fusion. Lyrics: Elysia... turn the concrete into gold. Uuuhhhh... yeah... Roots in the concrete... glowing! City is cold... but the fire is growing. Roots in the concrete... glowing! The pavement breaks... the drums awake... Haah... let it shake! We beat the drum in the neon light! [Choir responds: Ahee!] We dance the dust into the night! [Choir responds: Ahee!] No wall can hold the spirit sound! Roots in the concrete... underground! Heavy sky... but my feet are light. London rain... meets the tribal night. Uuuhhhh... yeah... We don't need permission to shine! I feel the ancestors call my name... Turning the shadows into a flame! OH, RISE UP... HEAR THE SOUND! WE BEAT THE DRUM IN THE NEON LIGHT! [Choir responds!] WE DANCE THE DUST INTO THE NIGHT! [Choir responds!] NO WALL CAN HOLD THE SPIRIT SOUND! ROOTS IN THE CONCRETE... UNDERGROUND! Ra-ta-ta... ra-ta-ta... Roots in the concrete... Yeah. 🌌 Vernandes Music Universe An independent music network dedicated to female voices.
