Topaz McGarrigle of Golden Dawn Arkestra comes on the Music Fringe to talk about the emergence of Afrobeat as well as the likelihood of initiating a sun-worshipping, fungi-eating, West Texas cult. The Dilettante and Topaz discuss the difference between ‘Afrobeat’ and ‘Afrobeats’ while illuminating artists like Fela Kuti, William Onyeabor, Burna Boy, Bobi Wine, and Naira Marley. Reptilian conspiracies, Q-Anon core techno, and vaccine fashion tips also make appearances in this hour of self-dissection.
