PS: As of this writing you've got just 57 hours left to contribute!

En digne fils de son père disparu depuis déjà 13 ans, Femi Kuti continue haut de porter haut la flamme de l'Afrobeat, une musique qui navigue sans cesse entre jazz et rythmes africains, mais aussi entre sensualité, abandon de soi, danse et diatribes pleine de la rage des révoltés. Il se sera pourtant retiré dans un silence de presque 5 ans entre Africa Shrine, le live enregistré au mythique club de Lagos et le Day By Day sorti fin 208. Entre temps, notre homme affirme avoir voulu devenir un meilleur musicien et s'être enfermé pour pratiquer la trompette [...]
