Posted by

Skepta guests on a newly released Tony Allen track.

The afrobeat pioneer and legendary percussionist sadly died last year, working on music right to the end.

New album ‘There Is No End’ collects some unearthed recordings, and it features an array of guests.

Out on April 30th, it underlines the continuing importance of Tony Allen’s legacy in all aspects of the music landscape.

Guests on ‘There Is No End’ include Sampa The Great, Lava La Rue, Danny Brown, and more.

New song ‘Cosmosis’ features Ben Okra, with Boy Better Know hero Skepta spraying on top.

It’s a remarkable moment – different aspects of the Nigeria diaspora united on one song, bringing together different styles and elements under the afrobeat umbrella.

‘There Is No End’ will be released on April 30th.
