Music | Cee Lo Green F*** You

Had to post this song...it's too damn good! Still playing this song but there needs to be a radio edit as I need to play this in the office! Anywho yes Cee lo was supposed to be playing at Cargo but news came in this morning that this has been cancelled.

Cargo said via their website:

"We’ve had a lot of calls about the Cee-Lo Green show which was originally booked for Monday 27th September. Unfortunately this show had to be postponed until October. However now due to events out of our hands he will not be performing at Cargo. The show was originally booked in with Live Nation and we have no change of date or location as yet.

Please do check back on the events page on the Cargo website or the Live Nation website.

Once again we’re sorry that this show isn’t happening. Hopefully when Cee-Lo Green is ready to play a live show he’ll be gracing the Cargo stage."

We hear that another date has been released at another venue. We'll confirm when we get the deets.

Today || Tony Allen 70 - Nigeria 50

When: 6 October 2010
Where: Barbican Hall

Tickets: £13.50 - 22.50
Start Time: 7:30pm






Details as follows:

Celebrating Tony Allen’s 70th Birthday and 50 years of Nigeria’s independence, this concert features guest collaborators who he has worked with over the years.
Born in August 1930, and a self-taught musician, he began to play at the age of eighteen, a fan of American jazz but also fascinated by traditional music and with the percussion work of Ghanaian Guy Warren, who mixed traditional rhythms with the new sounds of American bebop. Invited to audition for a jazz-highlife band by Fela Kuti in 1964, he became an original member of Kuti’s Koola Lobitos highlife-jazz band and started a decades-long musical relationship. This special evening marks Tony Allen’s 70th birthday and features several special guests collaborators who Allen has worked with over the years.

This year also marks Nigeria’s 50th anniversary of Independence and Allen has been at the centre was at the centre of Afrobeat, which is Nigeria’s most influential musical export – which combined the heavy groove and universal appeal of soul with jazz, highlife, and the polyrhythms of Yoruba music. Allen’s fusion of drum styles perfectly complemented Fela’s new African groove and he recorded over 30 albums with Fela and Africa ’70 – widely regarded as Fela’s best works. He has also worked with Manu Dibango, King Sunny Ade and Ray Lema. While often returning to the Afrobeat template that made his name, in the years since Allen has also worked with a broad range of rock acts, such as Jimi Tenor, Sebastien Tellier, Charlotte Gainsbourg and, to general acclaim, with Damon Albarn, Paul Simonon as the group The Good, The Bad and the Queen. 

'There is no question that Tony Allen is a genius, one of the greatest percussionists in the history of popular music.'The Guardian
