Zilo
Groove is back on the scene with a wonderful album called “The Afrobeat,
Hip-Hop and Jazz Experience”. Born and raised in France, but exiled in New
York City for the past decade, Zilo Groove has been delighting music fans at a blistering
paste over multiple continents. While he can play bass, guitar, drums, keyboard,
sing, write and produce music, it had been a while since we had heard from
Zilo. As per our latest interview, he
was working on a couple of documentaries that took him around the world, but
the first wave of Covid 19 hit, he was forced to come back to New York City and
stand by for a few months.
Always
a hustler, after a few months of being bunkered at home in New York City, the
groove man got bored and decided to go against the grain. He took a flight to Africa and traveled to
Lagos, Nigeria, where he mingled with a plethora of African artists. True to his roots, he kept his jazzy feel and
mixed it with hip-hop and Afrobeat. The
result is a wonderful collection of bouncy tracks, with wonderfully uplifting
lyrics.
Very
few artists can fuse so many different genres of music and make them blend into
a fresh new style that has mass appeal. Maestro Zilo is definitely one of them.
This why his album is worth a listen.
Share
it as much as you can and help make this wonderful music spread around the
world.
