    About this album

    Juju Music is a landmark album that helped introduce King Sunny Adé’s Nigerian juju sound to listeners far beyond West Africa. Released in 1982, it pairs intricate Yoruba guitar lines, layered percussion and bright, cyclical grooves with a fluid, dance-driven energy that made Adé one of the style’s great ambassadors. Issued under the name King Sunny Adé & His African Beats, the record sharpened his reputation for elegance and momentum rather than brute force, and became an important gateway for international audiences interested in African popular music. Its influence helped open space for later global crossover successes in world and Afrobeat-inspired music.
