Afrobeat now umbrellas a swath of proto-blues psych from the crucible of American music, but Ghanaian hiplife and highlife, Yoruba jùjú, and Nigerian naija beats backbone the hypnotic hip shake of this once specifically regional genre. As such, the heart of this debut ATX convergence beats Nigerian. Nigeria/Yoruba actress Shade Omoniyi percolates Afro-hop as Lepashandy, Jeff Akoh reps the West African gulf coast, and Nigerian Texan BM Casso reps Dallas. NYC speed industrialist D.Lyte, San Francisco Afro-electro crooner John Networq, and D.C. wedding singer Isaac Geralds support ATX MCs Pop Stunna, Mike Melinoe, and more.
