2baba's artistic angle, comes with a wind that blows very warm, soft air, which serves as an appreciation and encourages cerebral growth and soft warmlines. Whenever 2baba glides the love angle in his music, it always includes the African woman, her genuine character, and involving every realistic human emotion, you feel the breeze flow warmly through, and totally. How he talks about the heart2heart matters, very sensibly and respective. Talking about his love tracks from way back and recent is originality and bloom, his: \\\"African Queen\\\", \\\"Love Is Crime\\\", \\\"Hate What You Do To Me\\\", \\\"Omo Tosan\\\", \\\"Possibility\\\", \\\"Target You\\\", etc. Whenever he breeze's the art, you are certain of gracious messages, and solute words of wisdom and morale\u2019s to paint the proper picture of the African woman, and his spewing despicable love languages, full of excellence.

Oh, and dont tell somebody that wants to hear afrobeat that you arent planning on working some in the set...they straight up want to either fight you or argue all night as to why you dont want to clear the floor on their behalf LOL
Shokazoba, an afrobeat band based in Northampton, Mass., received an email from Hampshire College (located in the nearby town of Amherst) on Thursday that said a decision had been reached to cancel the group's performance at the Friday event. The email, obtained by The Huffington Post, did not provide a reason for the sudden cancellation. However, a statement posted on the private liberal arts college's website noted that controversy over the band's mostly white membership had caused concern among students at the school.
"Some members of our student community questioned the selection of [the] band, asking whether it was a predominantly white Afrobeat band and expressing concerns about cultural appropriation and the need to respect marginalized cultures," explains the statement read.
However, media reports of his passing have led with headings that credit Tony as the "Co-creator of Afrobeat". Tony was a good friend of mine for many years, for whom I have infinite respect and affection, both as a human being and consummately gifted musician. I never heard him making such a claim for himself and feel that he would have found such a description of his relationship with Fela both embarrassing and inaccurate.
This is by no means a denigration of Tony's unique and universally respected contribution. Just an advice to journalists to carefully consider their use of hyperbole. Let's give credit where credit is due.
We had a blast @ Rio Loco festival in Toulouse on June 17th 2023! it was a reunion date after the first shows we did and it was amazing performing again with afrobeat band Antibalas , leading this journey in the kingdom on Mrs. Aretha Franklin. Along with Alice Russell and Zara McFarlane
Nollywood's AMVCA and Afrobeats' The Headies is pretty much the most popular entertainment awards in Nigeria. Let's take a look into the growing disparity in the respect accorded to the AMVCA and the Headies.
When considering why the AMVCA generated more respect and admiration than the Headies award, we might point to the fact that Nollywood is still a couple of yards behind its more illustrious sibling the Afrobeat.
Another notable factor to consider is the role played by the movie stars. These movie stars respect the AMVCA and display this respect by showing up and conducting themselves accordingly. All these stars - both the nominated and the non-nominated - approach the event with grace and mutual respect. They make a conscious effort not to feed fans with negativity and propaganda that can bring disrepute to the AMVCA.
At the 2016 Headies, both parties in the fracas decided to boycott the award over the spat at the last edition. There was also a notable absence of several top artists from the award and this ushered in an unfortunate decline for the Headies. A decline that was propelled by the inability of Nigerian artists to show respect, appreciation, and sportsmanship.
But then, maybe the only reason American artists go back for the Grammys is due to the absence of another prestigious award like the Grammys. A lot of these artists show a similar nonchalance towards the BET Awards, but not the Grammys. Perhaps Nigerian artists only disrespect the Headies because of an oft-delusional dream to compete for a maximum of three categories at the Grammys.
