Our Take

Tony Allen, the legendary Nigerian drummer and pioneer of Afrobeat, is back with his latest album "There Is No End," and let me tell you, there truly is no end to the groove this man can lay down.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world of jazzy horn lines, funky bass grooves, and of course, Allen's signature polyrhythmic drumming that never fails to get your feet tapping. Tracks like "Cosmosis" and "Once in a Lifetime" showcase Allen's ability to blend traditional African rhythms with modern electronic elements, creating a sound that is truly unique and captivating.

But what sets this album apart is the star-studded list of features, with the likes of Damon Albarn, Skepta, and Sampa the Great all making appearances. Each artist brings their own flair to the mix, adding layers of complexity and richness to Allen's already infectious sound.

Overall, "There Is No End" is a testament to Allen's enduring talent and influence in the music industry. It's a masterclass in musicality, groove, and soul that will have you coming back for more with each listen. Tony Allen may have left us too soon, but his music will live on forever.
