Next time you’re here, stay a while. Search for Fela. Search for Osadebe. Search for the new wave of Lagos and London. But don’t apologize for starting with Beyoncé.

At first glance, that might seem like a typo. You’re on a platform dedicated to Highlife music, African grooves, and the pulsating rhythm of the motherland. Beyoncé? The Houston-born queen of pop and R&B?

The groove recognizes the groove.

But here at HighlifeNg, we don’t believe in accidental clicks. We believe in musical threads. And if you landed here looking for Drunk in Love , you’re actually asking a deeper question: What connects a 2013 Beyoncé smash hit to the soul of African music?
