You guys are the best live band I've listened to playing Highlife! I started listening to Highlife around 2/2½ years ago and now, its all I listen to. I live in Hackney, London, my parents are from the Caribbean and this beautiful music has taken over my soul. What is the name of the first song? What is it about? Is it a cover and if so, who sung the original?
It is a cover. The first song is entitled "Kofi Nkrabea" by the African Brothers International Band (founded and led by Nana Kwame Ampadu). It tells the story and adventures of a guy named Kofi Nkrabea, who is trying his best to navigate his way through life despite difficult circumstances, loneliness, and other misfortunes. "Nkrabea" is a word that means "destiny;" he has struggled so much from birth that he feels it is in his destiny to suffer. At some point he consulted an oracle about his serial misfortunes, and the gods informed him it is a family member that has cast an evil spell on him and that's why he has never been successful.
If you need to know anything about highlife or if you want some songs from my collection, I can help. I have all the great highlife songs in mp3 format in my playlists. I have a million songs; just name it, I have it.
