Our Take
London-based Afrobeat collective Kokoroko have hit all the right notes with their debut album "Tuff Times Never Last." From the hypnotic rhythms to the soulful melodies, this record is a captivating journey through the sounds of West Africa and beyond. The opening track, "Adwa," sets the tone with its infectious groove and uplifting horn section. It's impossible not to be moved by the powerful vocals and dynamic instrumentation, transporting you to a lively dance floor in Lagos or Accra. As the album progresses, Kokoroko continue to showcase their versatility and musical prowess. Tracks like "Ti De" and "Uman" blend traditional Afrobeat rhythms with modern production techniques, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh. But it's on songs like "Baba Ayoola" and "We Loved" where the band truly shines. The raw emotion and raw energy of these tracks are palpable, leaving a lasting impact on the listener. In a world filled with uncertainty and chaos, Kokoroko's "Tuff Times Never Last" is a beacon of hope and resilience. So grab your dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and let the music take you on a journey of joy and liberation. This album is a must-listen for anyone craving a musical escape from the everyday grind.
