posted in: Features
There is no better way to brighten up your day than by listening to an amazing song that mixes African beats with elements of soft rock, pop and even some reggae.
I am talking about the song Akonserawa by OurStage artist Femi Jubal, an exciting piece that, besides being rhythmically perfect, conveys an important message of peace and justice. According to the artist, this song reflects the pain of my continent and it is dedicated to all the victims of hate, injustice, genocide in Africa and beyond.
The thing is, Femi is not just a talented musician. He is also a human rights crusader who aims to use his music to transmit his passion for change, justice, freedom and equality. As an artist, he understands that his words are powerful tools towards social change.
Originally from Lagos, Nigeria, Femi has been building a strong career as a musician in Africa and beyond. In 2007, he released the single Cry of Africa and received great compliments on his work. Jubal is currently working on a new album and is working with artists around the world.
If you liked Akonserawa, then we are guessing you’ll also dig Enough is Enough Nigeria!! a song that Femi describes as a call for change and transformation in his home country. Another great song by Femi that talks about Nigeria is Eke o ni Baje. Get to know more of Femi’s work by listening to this playlist and enjoy your time in Africa. Bon Voyage!
