Paperback. Condition: New. In Queens of Afrobeat, the women of Afrobeat music-a unique blend of jazz, soul, highlife, and West African rhythms-are finally given the recognition they deserve. This extensive study takes a multifaceted view of the storied lives of the women behind Fela Kuti's activist music.
