I covered the Oyo State meth lab bust: billions in drugs, five suspects, a Mexican trafficking expert arrested. It got me thinking about a different side of Nigeria's drug problem, one law enforcement can't touch. For most young Nigerians, drugs weren't first understood on the streets. They were first heard in a song.On this episode of The Artiste Hangout with Femi Makx, I sat down with Femi Babafemi, Director of Media and Advocacy at the NDLEA, to talk about drugs, music, and Nigeria's entertainment industry. I asked him directly: Are artists responsible for glorifying drug use in their lyrics? Do celebrities get protected from arrest while smaller, independent artists take the fall? Can an artist battling addiction trust the NDLEA enough to ask for help without being exposed? And does using drugs actually make anyone more creative, or is that the biggest lie in the music industry?His answers reveal a side of the NDLEA most Nigerians never hear about, including a confidential rehabilitation program that has treated Nigerian celebrities without their names ever going public.This episode covers Afrobeats, addiction, fame, drug culture, youth influence, and the NDLEA's real approach to Nigeria's entertainment industry, straight from the agency's own Director of Media and Advocacy.Topics: NDLEA, Femi Babafemi, Afrobeats, drug addiction, Nigerian music industry, youth culture, rehabilitation, Femi Makx, The Artiste Hangout

A Ibibio Sound Machine, banda britânica de afro‑funk eletrônico, entra na contagem regressiva para o lançamento de seu sexto álbum, previsto para 11 de setembro. Enquanto o novo trabalho não chega, o grupo já deu uma amostra do que vem pela frente, com duas faixas recém‑lançadas do disco. Liderada pela vocalista Eno Williams, a Ibibio Sound Machine está na estrada desde 2013 e acumula cinco álbuns, com hits como “The Talking Fish”, “All That You Want” e “Pull The Rope”. Ao longo dos anos, o grupo manteve uma assinatura sonora vibrante, inspirada na era dourada do funk e da disco music da África Ocidental, sempre misturando essa base com elementos modernos de pós‑punk e electro. O próximo álbum, “Chopping Mountain”, pelo selo Merge Records, reúne 10 faixas e é descrito como um trabalho expansivo e profundamente enraizado, combinando texturas de highlife, afrobeat, soul e música eletrônica. A RFI já entrou no clima e colocou na sua playlist o single “Concept of Love”, uma faixa cheia de energia, irresistivelmente dançante e que antecipa o espírito do novo disco. Para ouvir o podcast na íntegra, aumente o som! *** O Balada Musical vai ao ar todos os sábados nos programas da RFI Brasil e também pode ser ouvido no Spotify e no Deezer.

In this special episode we introduce you to a fast-paced, emotional sound built from the streets of Lagos, Nigeria. We follow DJ Khalifa, the pioneer behind the sound, from DJing on a phone in a hostel to collaborating with CKay and catching the ear of Afrobeats stars. We also hear what it means for a street sound to go global and what's at stake if it does. Is this Nigerian EDM? We'll let you decide. Produced by FayFay APWW #880

IN THE MIX W/ DJ DEE MONEY - AFROBEATS, AMAPIANO AND MORE JULY 17,2026 by DJ Dee Money

Jazz-funk brass band EMEFE didn't plan on getting back together after their indefinite hiatus in 2016. Everyone involved with the project at the time, including founding member and drummer Miles Francis, went on to pursue other musical endeavors, until one of their 2015 album tracks, titled “Sun Spat,” began to gain some traction online years later. “We never heard from anybody from Spotify or any of these companies. It truly felt like people listening,” says Francis, highlighting this rare experience at a time when artists fought for attention like never before. After millions of streams, fan covers of the song emerged and EMEFE couldn't ignore the buzz anymore. Shortly after their reunion, they recorded a new album, aptly titled Forward. Now, they're back on the road as a 10-piece band, with Doug Berns on bass, Jake Pinto on keys, Jas Walton on tenor sax, Lynn Ligammari on baritone sax, Jackie Coleman on trumpet, Aani Kisslinger on trombone, Alden Harris-McCoy and Tony Jarvis on guitars, and Javier Ramos on congas and shekere. We managed to fit them all into our studio to bring you their special performance of afrobeat-infused EMEFE songs, old and new, for this edition of Soundcheck. (- Sırma Munyar) Setlist: 1. Stutter 2.

Ghana, un país de África Occidental con más de 34 millones de habitantes, destaca por su riqueza histórica, cultural y política. Cuna del poderoso Imperio Ashanti y hogar de más de 80 lenguas, conserva un legado único reflejado en símbolos como los Adinkra y el sagrado Trono de Oro. Su costa, conocida como la Costa de Oro, fue uno de los principales escenarios del comercio transatlántico de personas esclavizadas, cuyos castillos de Elmina y Cape Coast hoy son lugares de memoria histórica. En 1957, bajo el liderazgo de Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana se convirtió en el primer país del África subsahariana en independizarse del dominio británico, impulsando el panafricanismo. Actualmente, su vibrante capital, Accra, es un centro cultural y diplomático, mientras que el país sigue dejando huella en el mundo con géneros musicales como el Highlife y el Afrobeats, además de su pasión por el fútbol representada por las Black Stars.

Stop 3 on our summer world tour takes us to the continent of Africa — specifically to Nigeria, the most populous country on the continent, home to more than 500 distinct ethnic groups, hundreds of languages, and one of the richest and most diverse musical traditions in the world. In this episode, we explore the deep roots of Nigerian folk music — from the ancient kingdoms of the Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa peoples to the extraordinary talking drum that literally speaks a language, to the interlocking rhythms of the ogene bells that influenced jazz, blues, and gospel music in America. We also talk honestly about how the transatlantic slave trade carried Nigerian musical DNA across the ocean, and how those rhythms survived, took root, and grew into something new without ever losing their essential character. And we connect it all to the contemporary Nigerian music that is shaping global sound right now. Nigeria's music is not a museum piece. It is alive, evolving, and more influential than most people realize. What We Cover in This Episode Nigeria's geography, history, and extraordinary cultural diversity Ancient Nigerian civilizations: the Nok, the Yoruba kingdoms, the Benin Kingdom, the Hausa city-states, and the Igbo communities How the transatlantic slave trade carried Nigerian musical traditions to Puerto Rico, Brazil, Cuba, Trinidad, and the American South — and how those traditions survived The dundun (talking drum) — how an hourglass-shaped drum can reproduce the tones of a spoken language The Yoruba musical tradition, the Ifá spiritual tradition, and the role of specific drum rhythms in ceremony and community life Jùjú music — how the Yoruba folk tradition evolved into a modern genre, with King Sunny Ade as a key figure Igbo folk music — the ọjà flute and the ogene iron bells, with their interlocking rhythmic patterns How West African interlocking rhythms became the foundation of jazz, blues, and gospel music in America Afrobeats and how contemporary Nigerian artists are carrying folk traditions into global popular music today Free Downloads for This Episode

Jon Muq on Captive Audiences, Culture Shock in Austin, and Writing Joyful Songs | Curious Goldfish (30A Songwriters Fest)At the 30A Songwriters Festival, host Jason English interviews Ugandan-born, Austin-based musician Jon Muq about his unusual path into music and life in the U.S. Jon describes learning English through singing, first to homeless children in Uganda and later as a cruise-ship performer building a 250+ song repertoire, plus how “We Are the World” sparked his belief his voice could “fit in a tune.” He recounts arriving in Austin for a refugee fundraiser during SXSW, navigating community and dating culture differences, and developing his English fluency through music. Jon discusses his debut English album "Flying Away," including writing “Butterflies,” his moment-driven songwriting approach for a second album, his philosophy of posting content without chasing metrics, and launching the Afrobeats-focused label/event project Shake It Africa, while reflecting on stress, authenticity, and the future of the music industry amid new technology.00:00 Wild Austin First Date01:06 Podcast Intro And Guest Setup03:10 30A Festival Vibes05:15 Back To Uganda After Years07:02 Music As Language Training08:04 Singing For Street Kids09:25 We Are The World Spark11:48 Cruise Ship Bootcamp13:23 Landing In Austin By Chance16:03 Finding Community In Austin16:55 Community and Offense17:26 Dating Culture Shock19:12 Connection Versus Work19:46 Visa and First Gigs20:24 Flying Away Album21:45 Butterflies Backstory23:05 Writing in the Moment25:28 Artist Mindset and Ambition26:57 Happy Songs and Stress28:44 Content Pressure and Identity30:34 Shake It Africa Plans32:07 Curiosity and Future Tech34:01 Runaway Live Performance

Despite a career that has sold more than 30 million records and a catalog that could allow him to retire comfortably, Keith Sweat says he keeps working to set an example for his children. He believes his work ethic teaches future generations that success comes through hard work, not entitlement. Known for helping pioneer the New Jack Swing era with his groundbreaking 1987 debut Make It Last Forever, Sweat continues to push himself creatively. While he enjoys a simple life filled with friends, family, and relaxing at home, he's still focused on expanding his musical legacy. Keith revealed that he's currently preparing to release three projects at once—an R&B album, an Afrobeat album, and a Southern Soul album featuring artists like King George, Calvin Richardson, and potentially Anthony Hamilton. Rather than chasing trends, Sweat says he's proving he can succeed across multiple genres while continuing to build on a legacy that has already stood the test of time.
