Live at Bryant Park

yourmetalfriend I'm super late to the party, but EMEFE's take on modern afrobeat is energetic and lovingly groove-laden. The chemistry among these super talented musicians is just magical.

I don't dance, but this music makes me move involuntarily and I'm okay with that. Favorite track: Oh, That's What It Is (live).
