A 13-piece ensemble from New York City, Zozo Afrobeat features musicians from around the world and is led by African music luminary Kaleta. Born in the Republic of Benin and raised in Nigeria, Kaleta grew up recording and performing with legendary Nigerian musicians Fela Kuti and King Sunny Ade. After moving to the U.S., Kaleta toured with Femi Kuti and most recently with Lauryn Hill. \r\n\r\nWith Zozo Afrobeat, Kaletas music pays homage to the greats, and yet has its own distinctive sound and energy. Like Fela Kuti, who used his music to challenge a corrupt Nigerian government, Kaleta has written songs that are socially and politically provocative. At the same time, his lyrics reflect a keen sense of humor and a message of hope. On Zozo Afrobeats 2007 release, Country of Guns, Kaleta scatters pop-culture references and marvels of a country with 250 million people and 250 billion guns. On other songs, Kaleta sings in Yoruba, Goan, Fon, and French. \r\n\r\nOn stage, Kaleta displays remarkable energy singing, dancing, and playing guitar and percussion. The band responds accordingly, delivering cascades of horns, hypnotic Benino-Nigerian rhythms, and captivating solos. Zozo Afrobeat has played at the Lincoln Center Out of Doors Festival, the Brooklyn Museum, and various clubs in the New York area. \r\n\r\nZozo is:\r\nKaleta (Leon Ligan-Majek): composer, lead vocal, guitar, percussion, leader Rep. of Benin+Nigeria\r\nBenon Lipowski : guitars Poland\r\nBrett Leghorn: trombone, vocals USA\r\nDavid Aaron: tenor saxophone, vocals Canada\r\nJeremy King: congas/percussion USA\r\nDave Ahl: keyboards, band director USA\r\nJeremy Kay: bass guitar USA\r\nRodney Siau: trumpet, shekere, vocals USA\r\nBrett Gregory: baritone saxophone USA\r\nGloria Osaghae: vocals, shekere, claves Nigeria\r\nMai Lingani: vocals Burkina Faso", "musiccaps_names": "[\"Afrobeat\", \"Music\"]", "musiccaps_aspects": "[\"afrobeat\", \"electric guitar\", \"bass guitar\", \"keyboard\", \"brass\", \"saxophone\", \"acoustic drums\", \"percussion\", \"vibrant\", \"colorful\", \"playful\", \"upbeat\"]", "musiccaps_author": "9", "youtube_id": "IpYw4nKPx5o", "musiccaps_rowid": 1944} {"video": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQTWFTNy-WA&start=50&end=60", "youtube_link": "{\"label\":\"\\\"Look Like You\\\" Afrobeat Remix DJ Tjaey\",\"href\":\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQTWFTNy-WA&start=50&end=60\"}", "musiccaps_caption": "This is an afrobeat remix of a hip-hop music piece.
