How did this album come about?
Picture
"18 years ago, as a writer & performer, I stepped further into my creativity with a brand new collection of songs.


I went further than I have ever been before with my compositions, performance & collaborations.


I made funk tinged with jazz & recited poetry over melodies from Africa that pre dated much of the modern world.


So 18 years after it’s original creation, I have re-released my (remastered) Acoustic Afro Hip Hop album.


It features the wondrous talents of Eska Mtungwazi, Sona Jobarteh, Robert Mitchell, Tunde Jegede & more all sonically tweaked from the original 2” tape recordings to a new refined version.


It’s out now from your favourite digital store. So click the link below to listen."
