Now this is a track that is a meal suitable only for the Asantehene! A bit of folk, combined with soul, and a bit of an Afrobeat groove to sweeten the Ghanaian jollof rice of a track that we have here. If you know you know. This starts off with a cool guitar riff, leading …

Sharon Katta drops a track that combines electronica with a bit of spoken word and he does it in such a way that your attention is held for the whole time it’s playing. His vocals are layered on this with harmonies and he uses them as a pad melding in with the synths… my favourite …
