Playlist July 6: Afrobeat

I had promised bhangra and more on the last show, but couldn't resist doing an afrobeat show since Fela's son, Seun Kuti, was coming to DC to play a show on July 7 with Egypt 80. Next show: July 20, with the aforementioned bhangra. Looking forward to highlighting some travel writing then- there's still time to submit it- utzbari@gmail.com.
