November Rose at Perreo
November Rose, also known as "Rose" or "Warrior Rose," is an American music artist, producer, and DJ from Pontiac, Michigan. He is a prominent creator of Amapiano music, a South Africa-originating genre now rapidly spreading across the globe. With popular releases like "Palo Santo," "Birds of Paradise," and a visceral Amapiano remix of Sade's "Sweetest Taboo," listeners embark on a tribal, cinematic journey through soulful soundscapes, entrancing basslines, and deep, house-like rhythms. Rose's influences include artists such as DJ Maphorisa, Kabza de Small, Musa Keys, Mr. JazziQ, and Shimza because of the unbridled energy carried by their sound and its expression on the dance floor. Similarly, Rose is well known for unleashing his theatrical personality during his performances while creating a profound connection with his audience. His artistry has earned him the attention of legendary platforms such as Boiler Room, and he has performed opening sets for artists like Major League Djz, Focalistic, and Juls to name a few. Rose is trailblazing a unique path in the African electronic dance music space as his music continues to unite DJ and dance communities worldwide.
