If you had any interest in music at all in 1999, you will more than likely remember Jennifer Lopez’s iconic Latin House track Waiting for Tonight. Now, 26 years later, artist and producer Patrick Kam has created a remix of Waiting for Tonight, blending Dance Pop and Chill Afro House into a combination that we’re pretty sure Jennifer Lopez herself would absolutely love! Additionally, whilst it might seem like an unusual move to create an Afro House cover of this particular Jennifer Lopez song, we think that Waiting for Tonight has always carried the kind of warm, fresh energy that Kam channels with his rework.
