Afro Swing

No sound represents the cultural richness of Britain’s major cities better than Afroswing. Here, where genre boundaries exist only to be scoffed at, MCs and producers add the music of their Afro-Caribbean heritage—Afrobeats, dancehall, soca—to the petri dish alongside local club and rap flavours. The result is fresh, melodic and endlessly inventive. Our editors are always switching things up, so if you hear a tune you like, add it to your library.
