Afrobeat's Takeover: Rotimi's Number #1 Album, Walk With Me, on R&B Charts

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Here's comes the typical coli militant defense now after not being able to read or comprehend the English language while being totally wrong, decides to double down on the militancy.

Do you bring your Asian and White girlfriends to your Afrobeat parties that you pretend to go to..

wrong on all counts.. nothing militant about my post. "afrobeat being summer white girl music" is a dead ass giveaway that you don't interact with people outside the internet. Ed Sheeran running anyones summer is tragic

Its about time the US embraces afrobeat

When I see the word "Afrobeat", I immediately think of Fela Kuti type music.

Anyway thanks to Nigerians for bringing Afrobeat to the world outside Africa.

Classic coli militant post, first don't know how to read, second double down when proven wrong, third act like you know stuff about stuff based on going outside, 4th prove you don't go outside by saying something that is counter to "outside reality"

The biggest Grammy Award winning song of 2017 and one of the biggest songs of ever running anyone's summer being tragic.
I know you gotta try so hard in Canada but it's okay on the Coli breh.

I'm sad because I know filth like Ariana Grande and Post Malone gonna jock the shyt out of the style soon

Isn't Tropical House gentrified Dancehall pretty much?

Rotimi so fine Lawd

All my African men are

I’ve fukked with Rotimi since he was underground. He’s always made great music.

It has been a great last year for Afrobeat my only pet peeve is that in America, they always play the same records over and over again (i.e Davido - Fall, Davido - If, Wizkid - SOCO, Wizkid feat. Drake - Come Closer, these records are almost two years old) when there is so much more out there including records that sound nothing like dance hall or caribbean type records and are the best records out. Then again I believe some of the success attributed to those records is because of the Caribbean vibe but I do think records that do sound "authentically African" are better.

The guy right now who is on fire is Burna Boy and he performed at Coachella just hope he can cross over like his other counterparts:

Exaggerated yes, but who would of thought trap would be the predominant sound of hip hop back in 2006...

Man shut the fukk up you don't know what the fukk you're talking about

Dancehall is 90-110 bpm
Afrobeats is 120-140 bpm

That alone is a massive difference in tempo and cacs not moving that fast. Tired of uncultured heathens talking nonsense
