Did you grow up in a West African household? Did your parents play their native music when you were growing up as a child, and you’d watch them dance around the house with smiles on their faces? I did and this débruit remix of KonKoma’s “Kpanlogo” reminds of those invaluable, joyful moments.
KonKoma, the London-based Afro-Funk outfit, once rooted in Ghana, not too far from Liberia, have been noted to grace stages with the likes of Bobby Womack, Hugh Masakela, the famous South African singer and Peter Green, the founder of Fleetwood Mac.
