Finishing off his trilogy The Weeknd delivers Echoes of Silence just before the closing bells of the year. Track seven, “The Fall” is produced by Clams Casino, potentially one of the most exciting collaborations since Jamie XX and Drake. Aka since like, last month.

Dan Boadi rose to prominence mid-70's, topping the national charts in his native Ghana with the Abrabo LP, which apparently "sold like apples". Dan decided to try his luck in the United States, arriving in Chicago in 1978. With little fanfare, he released Money is the Root of Evil in a limited run of 500 copies. The LP's two cuts, "Money is the Root of Evil" and "Play That Funky Music" launched the propulsive Afro-Beat of Nigeria's FELA KUTI into the majestic, psychedelic abandon of the American dance floor. At least that was the intention. What should have become a venerable Loft/Warehouse monster passed unnoticed.
Re-issue from early 2000's
"Money is The Root Of All Evil" popped up on the African Disco compilation, and has been re-released a couple times.
THIS IS MONSTER AFROBEAT DISCO FUNK RECORDED RIGHT HERE IN CHI-TILLA!!!!!!

Ron Trent's newest vision kicks off Friday, November 4. The party, called Ilé, is dedicated to "Drums of Passion + Afro Beat", but anyone who knows Mr. Trent's work knows his musical pallet knows no bounds... dancing spirits rejoice!
Coup d'état is the intimate lounge inside The Shrine nightclub. So quite literally, it is a blow against the current state of lounge and nightlife culture in Chicago. Comfortable, chic and most definitely sexy, it combines rustic charm and modern design. Primitive futurism maybe? Yes it looks good in magazines, but it feels even better. Think Marvin Gaye or Raheem DeVaughn...smooth & soulful, but with some grit.
It's the perfect spot to relax, sip a well made cocktail and chill with friends. Cozy up to the bar or lounge on a banquette. You know how certain records just make you feel sexy? The right room has the same power.
The Bogus Boys’ are back with "Now or Neva". The Chicago duo seems to get better with every project. Album guests are few but include Meek Mill, Shawnna & Lupe Fiasco. Please check it out! Download here (click)
Yes, yes and yes! Finally, we get a taste of The Black Key's new project El Camino, which drops December 6th, and it's SOOO GOOD. I have listened to "Lonely Boy" way to many times in the last 20 minutes, and I feel like you're going to do the same. Cannot wait for more of their new work. PS, the video for this song is hillarious!
Straight from the God Son's mouth (more like personal site) we have Nas' new video for "NASTY". Check it out. The record is set to appear on Nas’ next album Life Is Good.
FELABRATION!: A Celebration of the Legacy of Fela Kuti (featuring DJ Ron Trent & DJ New Life).
Doors open @ 9pm, party til 2am.
The party will be in the Coup d'Etat Lounge!
A Little about FELA KUTI: Fela's musical revolution was fueled by the fusion of Jazz, Funk, Ghanian/Nigerian High-life, psychedelic rock, and traditional West African chants and rhythms to create a new hybrid that ultimately became Afrobeat.
To pay proper tribute to Fela, The Shrine will host a special FELABRATION! that will cover his musical career and artists who have worked collaboratively with him (Roy Ayers, Ginger Baker, Tony Allen) and all those who presently carry his musical message further. There is no cover for the event.
Doors open @ 9pm. Get ready for the 3rd Annual FELAbration!!
