Get: Tickets | Directions
Togolese born musician Massama Dogo, leader of the Washington, D.C. band Elikeh, has made it his life's work to craft a distinctly Togolese sound that also borrows from the grittiness of rock. On this title track from Elikeh's newest album, you'll hear bits and pieces of Western music that mingle with a West African tone. Guitar and horns front this political tune while hints of Afropop and Afrobeat underscore the track.
