37thstate:

FolK tOld Me: Super Dope Afrofuturist Band
Check out this band Folk Told Me. My favorite song is “Gallows Pole” one of Jazzmen Lee-Johnson’s earlier projects.
Folk Told Me is a band of melodic sankofa martians, spinning stories like hip hop griots doomed to this place called earth, traveling in sound sparring with myopic modes of being…freeing…The members are Jazzmen Lee-Johnson, Ngakana Monyelo, Tshepiso Maleke,...
