    Fela Kuti Vs. De La Soul – Fela Soul

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PDg8YyFzMw

    “What do you get when you put together afrobeat legend Fela Kuti and rap pioneers De La Soul? You get Fela Soul; musical tapestry created by Gummy Soul artist Amerigo Gazaway. More than just a clever title, Fela Soul is an 8-track, 33 minute journey into the world of afrobeat rhythms, funky horn riffs, and classic hip-hop gems. Using dozens of hand-picked samples from the Nigerian instrumentalist and political figure Fela Kuti, and 8 carefully-chosen acapellas from the Native Tongue rap trio De La Soul, Amerigo seamlessly intertwines the two into something completely new and original.”

    Every break was somebodies Best Kept Secret at one time – This on-going mix (part 2 and 3 coming soon, 4 later etc) came about as a result of two ageing B-boys training in the lab and sharing beats…. not claiming anything – there’s classics (new and old), rarities and new music on here – big shout to the DJs who broke many of these beats onto the Hip Hop landscape first, these are our heroes…..we are just sharing in the fun of the dig and hopefully providing the soundtrack for a training session or two besides our own….big thanks to Timber, Dolby D, Kilo and Mouse for the drops….
