Degg J Force

Urban Afreeka

A show bursting with energy where the polyglot singer-songwriters fuse rap/reggae/dancehall/urban Afro trends while drawing their inspiration from West African melodies.  They majestically blend traditional instruments (West African percussion, Mandinka guitar and kora) with resolutely modern sounds, to offer music lovers an infectious music, a hip-hop with a traditional African touch.
