I was watching Irv Gotti's recent interview, where they celebrated 50 years of hip hop. He marveled at how far the culture had come, the mouths it had fed, the ecosystem it built.
Now, as Afrobeats enters its own renaissance, I envision its 50 year celebration. What will Africa's influence look like after half a century of global growth?
Hip hop started from the streets and grew into a cultural force that transformed music and business worldwide. Afrobeats can ride a similar wave - from Lagos, Accra, and Johannesburg to the rest of the world.
But how do we nurture this potential? Harness Afrobeats' momentum to build a thriving culture and industry like hip hop did? An ecosystem of creativity that empowers African talent for generations?
