Amerigo Gazaway: Fela Soul - Fela Kuti vs De La Soul (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP

Now on colored vinyl with full pic sleeve! Just as the title suggests, Fela Soul pairs De La Soul acapellas with Fela Kuti's afrobeat rhythms. Amerigo Gazaway hand picks samples from the legendary Nigerian musician (expect lots of supremely funky horn and guitar riffs) and layers them under verses from De La gems like "Stakes Is High," "Trouble In The Water," "Ooh," "Rock Co.Kane Flow," "Itsoweezee," and "Breakadawn." The album offers a completely new way to enjoy these classic sounds. Limited edition.
