small WORLD weekend Mix - The Afrobeat Edition

The Afrobeat Mix
The Afrobeat Mix


This episode is work safe.

Politics is essential to the genre of Afrobeat, since the founder Fela Kuti was deeply concerned in social criticism to pave way to social change. The message can be described as confrontational and controversial, which can be related to the political climate of most of the African countries in the 60s, which dealt with political injustice and military corruption while recovering from the transition from the colonial governments to self-determination.
