In the '80s, a Nigerian DJ named Hycentto Junior was notorious for making Onitsha people dance on his grooves. Soon, influenced by U.S hip-hop artists, he began rapping on top of the music he played. His eccentric style drew the attention of the biggest names, and the famous Nkono Teles decided to work with him on his next album, Mama Groove. Their project was released in 1991. Due to unfortunate circumstances, the number of copies available was really low, making it very hard to find. More than 25 years later, working for a motor company, Hycentto met online with French music passionate collective Lorem Ipsum, that had randomly found Mama Groove. The result is a reissue combining all the 1991 Mama Groove tracks and two bonuses selected from his first album, At A Party Last Night (1984). The unique variety of sounds and genres, covering electro hip-hop, digi-reggae and disco-funk, will carry from poolside to late night dancefloors.
