about

On "Lessons From The Book of Osayemi" Ngoma serves up another helping of smokin' spoken word with jazz/funk/fusion
with a slice or two of world beat. Electric Violin,Yidaki a.k.a Didgeridoo and Garage Band tracks serve as a platform for his political and spiritual conscious raising lyrics along with his vocalizing a song or two to sweeten your palate and feed your mind. Known for controversy this CD will not disappoint as the newly initiated Ifa Priest invokes Orishas and Eguns to join the party with enough funk to put a hump in your back. You'll be nodding your head to this.
