This month's show celebrates the seminal debut album from Nigeria's 2Face Idibia (2Baba). Released in 2004, 'Face 2 Face' is arguably one of the most important albums to be released from Nigeria in the last 20 years and one of the albums responsible for the current wave of Afrobeats, Afrofusion and Afropop artists coming out of West Africa. "Where's the Album!?" tracks are from Ghana's King Promise.
‘The Album Show’ celebrates albums created by Africans on the continent as well as in the diaspora. The concept of the show is to dive deep into classic, future classic and game-changing albums of a plethora of genres that were created by Africans. We want to talk about the hit songs, the album songs we all loved but was never a hit, the producers, the concepts, the themes, features, artwork and more. It’s a celebratory show, celebrating the Album. My show is different because at a time where albums are becoming less important, I want to showcase albums that really changed the culture and cloth of the African and the world.
