Afro Dance duo Sam & Mash dance to GURU’s music on BBC’s ‘The Greatest Dancer’
Afro Dance duo Sam & Mash put the music of Ghanaian Hiplife musician Guru and Grammy-nominated Nigerian singer, Burna Boy in the spotlight during their performance on the BBC One’s dance talent show “The Greatest Dancer”.
Sam (British-Ghanaian) and Mash (British-Nigerian) danced to Burna Boy’s “Anybody” and later switched it up to Guru’s “Karaoke” which got the judges and crowd dancing. Sadly they didn’t impress the judges enough to advance in the competition.
