Tosin Aribisala has been doing big things. The former Femi Kuti drummer is now part of two bands; his brainchild, African Rhapsody, where he combines African musical idioms with jazz, gospel, neo-soul, and other contemporary music genres, and Elikeh, a roots-afropop band merging the traditional rhythms from Togo with the sounds of 70′s afrofunk. Elikeh (photo above) has just released their new album Adje! Adje! and have been touring in support of the release. Here’s a quick preview of what you’ll see in the live show, below.

Love this dude and Elikeh!!
Hi Tosin,jus want say of you and every other Nigerian artistt doing what they know how to do…. Let keep on keeping on,let keep on living our DREAMS,it’ll surely pay off some day. So much love from me Shegun Shegun(bassist),South Africa.
can somebody tell the dude in the backwards hat to stop soloing all over the track
he SUCKS !!! the rest of the band sound cool, but homey needs to start listening and leave the heavy metal chops at home hahaha
Whhaaat?? that dude is one of the best guitar players around. I understand if you don’t like the style of some of his playing mixed with this type of music, but his talent can not be questioned, and he even plays different styles on this song. He rips solo’s when it’s his turn and the rest of the time he’s grooving flawlessly with the rhythm. It’s what makes this band so unique!
