Hard Proof
All instrumental funky biz. According to the short message underneath the following YouTube video, they are an Austin-based "collective" that tightly fuses afrobeat with adventurous jazz and deep funk. Right. Hear it for yourself:
You be the judge. Was that adventurous jazz? I think so. Was that deep funk? Oh yeah. Was that afrobeat? I dunno, but I tried one of the other YouTube videos in the suggested list that claimed to be afrobeat, which makes me think that afrobeat is techno drumming, autotuning, and a lot of half nekkid people. I am not a fan of Hot Afrobeat mix: Nigeria, Caeron, Ghana Azon. I doubt I'll see these dudes jam their jams.
