Many different Workshops which featured West African dancers and drummers from different countries (Senegal, Guinee and Congo). Definitely worth attending just to watch, the dancers were put through intensive dance classes and seemed to get both a great workout and lesson out of these dance workshops.

FEMI KUTI – EL REY THEATRE, LOS ANGELES (CA) – JANUARY 18TH, 2013
Wolof Times reporters Bunaama Diagne, Sunny Moore and Fusicology.com’s Asya Stein outside the El Rey Theatre after Femi Kuti’s performance. Show was live, the “Los Angeles Afrocentric Tribe” was there, Femi was very professional yet with a great sarcastic sense of humor like his father the great Fela Kuti (RIP). Well-accomplished musician on the Saxophone as well as the keyboards.
CHRISETTE MICHELLE – KEY CLUB, HOLLYWOOD (CA) – JANUARY 12TH, 2013
This young lady is so so talented, it seemed like she was using her voice as a Jazz instrument, you can tell she’s classically-trained yet hip hop influenced as well as other music genres. Top-Notch Diva/Singer 🙂
