about

Black President, the second album from Sila and the Afrofunk Experience (afrofunk.net), finds them at a crossroads-moving toward progress and change in both our lives and our music. A musical and artistic breakthrough, the album reflects a deeper realization of our ever-evolving identity. Fans of their debut album,The Funkiest Man in Africa, will no doubt notice that on Black President, their musical chemistry has blossomed and the songwriting has matured; they delve deeper into funky Afro-groove and socially-conscious, politically-aware messages.
