            "comment": "RIP to the co-creator of AfroBeat!\n--\n As the drummer for Fela Kuti’s revolutionary Africa 70, Allen’s polyrhythmic drumming defined Afrobeat, combining American Jazz and Nigerian Highlife to animate one of the most iconic performers of all time. Over the course of Allen’s tenure with the group, and later as a solo artist, he would continue to relentlessly innovate, incorporating new sounds and working with scores of contemporaries. His contributions as an artist and cultural ambassador left an indelible impact on every genre of popular music, from Techno to Jazz to Rock and Hip-Hop. Tony Allen’s music stands as an ongoing testament to the interconnected musical relationships and dialogues across the African diaspora, and their lasting influence on how we listen.\nhttps://www.jazzisdead.com/tonyallen",

They are best known for their 1985 single \"We Can Move,\" a blend of hip-hop and Afro-funk considered one of the first examples of Ghanaian hip hop, or HipLife. The original release was a 7\" single on which the band never received royalties or even a copy, as the 2,000 pressed copies were sold out of the Netherlands. The group disbanded after the incident, with Lenny and Abed moving to London and Terry continuing a career in dance.",

The album is a collection of his solo work and collaborations, including lesser-known side projects like the Apagya Show Band and his contributions to the Assase Ase and Taylor-led combos. It was released in conjunction with his 2010 album \"Love and Death\" and his 2011 collaboration with the Afrobeat Academy, which raised his international profile. \n\nI had the honor of opening for Ebo w/ Mizell at The Neptune!",
