Modern Ghana – Sep 27, 2007
His music is an eclectic fusion of the rich cultural heritage of Nigeria and the sounds of the African Diaspora. He combines Afrobeat Afrofunk Hip Hop Fuji Music Dancehall and Reggae. His trailblazing collaboration with the Nigerian Fuji star Adewale Ayuba earned him the 2005 edition of the prestigious Kora Award in the categories Best Group West Africa and Best Group Africa. A deciding factor for this recognition seemed to have been that Ad?antu’s songs like those of Peter Tosh or Fela Kuti always connect the personal and political. Just like Fufu (West Africa’s most popular cassava dumplings) which can only derive its best taste when combined with various dishes and stews Ad?antu made waves in Germany both on the musical and political front with “Brothers Keepers”. This is a collective of Afro-German hip hop and soul artists that he brought together as one voice to issue an uncompromising statement against racism which made it to the top position of the German Pop Charts.

ca If I told you that dancehall reggae superstars Buju Banton Beenie Man Capleton Sizzla Bounty Killer Vybz Kartel and Elephant Man are nothing but a bunch of “niggers” you’d all roundly and rightly kick my ass. But when hatemongering reggae dancehall performers publicly support or advocate violence against “battyboys” – Jamaican patois for “faggots” – few people raise even an eyebrow. But in Jamaica ground zero in the war over dancehall there have been a reported 98 gay-bashings so far this year including four lesbians who were raped and four gay men who’ve been killed. And anti-gay dancehall has become the music of the people. That is why the three-year-old international campaign against these dancehall performers is called Stop Murder Music… But when hatemongering reggae dancehall performers publicly support or advocate violence against “battyboys” – Jamaican patois for “faggots” – few people raise even an eyebrow.
