❝ Alhaji Waziri Oshomah hails from a special part of Edo State called Afemailand, which is a harmonious region of southern Nigeria … Waziri’s music fuses Etsako/Afemai folk styles with pan-Nigerian highlife and pop to create a sublime vehicle for his Islamic philosophy that gets everyone—Muslims, Christians, whoever—on the dance floor. ❞
Two great reissues of this joyous music released today via Luaka Bop:
Vol. 4 → https://alhajiwazirioshomah.bandcamp.com/album/vol-4
Vol. 5 → https://alhajiwazirioshomah.bandcamp.com/album/vol-5
