Based On This Sneak Peek, OkayAfrica's 'Riddim & Beats' Is About to Be Lit Tonight
OkayAfrica's 'Riddim & Beats' goes down tonight at Lincoln Center in NYC—here's a sneak peek of a show you can't miss featuring D'banj.
If you're in NYC, join us tonight at Lincoln Center for OkayAfrica's Riddim & Beats.
<p>Damrosch Park will be filled with the funk of West African beats and the rhythms of Caribbean carnival. Nigeria’s Kokomaster <strong>D’banj</strong> and Jamaican-born reggae star of the ’80s <strong>Sister Nancy</strong> join forces to summon the essential elements of carnival culture—music, costume, and dance—alongside eclectic London afrobeats band, <strong>The Compozers</strong>. The <strong>Carnyval Dancers</strong> will turn the stage into a vivid, colorful mash-up of African and Caribbean cultures in the heart of the city.</p><p>Click <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/okayafricas-riddim-beats-with-dbanj-sister-nancy-the-compozers-tickets-36560557612" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a> to RSVP, and take a look of what to look forward to in the sneak peek from rehearsal below.</p><p><div class="preroll-video"></div><ora-player></ora-player></p><p></p><div class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="968f2a8ff0633aaf1742d63fa1d6c88b"><div class="fb-video" data-href="https://www.facebook.com/okayafrica/videos/1634688029883022/" data-allowfullscreen="true"></div></div><p></p><p>Did we mention this is a <u>free</u> show?
