Blog # 25 Afro Beat to Afro Punk!



Check out Fela Kuti- "Gentleman" from 1973... he stands a musical icon for the transformation of African American music as well as Jazz and Rock today. Open hearts are all that can understand his music. None of the music I post is for the faint of utter humanity. Prejudice just has no place in my heart. Quite literally. I do my absolute to absorb and accept all things human.

Read all about Fela Kuti.
Check him out on Youtube.



Listening to his beautiful music has inspired a beautiful Documentary I must have seen in '03 about the AfroPunk movement and how there is a festival held every year. Check it out the trailer HERE <3

A beautiful spectacle of an artist is none other than Honeychild Coleman. She is not afraid to be who she is and still put on a great show. Not to mention her experimental music is out of this world! Please checkout a few of her videos via the Tube.
