Discover the extraordinary musical journey of Mushapata, a former boxer turned bodyguard for Bob Marley who converted to Rastafarianism and became a legend of the African reggae underground scene in Paris. Saba-Saba Fighting captures this unique artist's powerful blend of reggae, Afrobeat, and traditional African sounds, recorded during his most creative period between 1980 and 1984.
The title "Saba-Saba Fighting" translates to "fighting for peace," embodying the message that Mushapata championed throughout his remarkable life and musical career. This limited edition reissue from Akuphone presents four prime cuts that showcase his fantastic mixture of Brakka, reggae, and Afrobeat, complete with a stickered sleeve and comprehensive liner notes in English and French, making it an essential piece for collectors of underground African music and reggae rarities.
