From Lagos' blazing smoky clubs to the Seine's piers, through New York and Los Angeles, persistent memories remain. A founding member of the band Ghetto Blaster (1984-2006) and Fela's loyal partner in arms (1981-1983), Kiala has kept the fire going and sparkling. Full of impertinent innovative energy, Kiala blows the afrobeat burning breath. Alive and kicking! Here are acoustic takes on a traditional American gospel and a Fela classic...
