Afroterraneo presents Lagos 11, a vibrant Afro-House release by Barrio B, featuring Nigerian vocalist Ameh Fashi. The track is a heartfelt tribute to the Afro Funk sound of the 1970s and 1980s, reimagined for today's dancefloor. Drawing inspiration from the golden era of African funk while embracing contemporary Afro-House and Soulful House aesthetics, Lagos 11 bridges generations through rhythm, groove, and spirit. Driven by energetic horn arrangements, rolling string basslines, and tight, funky drums, the production creates a powerful foundation for Ameh Fashi's soulful and expressive vocal performance. His delivery channels the raw energy and consciousness of classic Afrobeat, bringing depth and authenticity to the track. For Barrio B, the goal was clear: to honour the original feel of the 70s while crafting a record that could be played loud in modern club settings and seamlessly mixed alongside today's Afro and Soulful House sounds. The collaboration with Ameh Fashi came naturally, resulting in a track full of life, groove, and character. Lagos 11 marks the first of several collaborations between Barrio B and Ameh Fashi scheduled for release this year on Afroterraneo, setting the tone for a forward-thinking catalogue rooted deeply in Afro-centric musical heritage.
