E.T. Mensah 'The King Of Highlife' is the founding father of dance band Highlife, the first Pan-African pop music, which is the basis for contempary genres like Afrobeats, afropop, hiplife, and a seminal influence on Cono rumba, soukous, mbalax and the original Afrobeat. During the 150s and 60s E.T. and the Tempos re-Africanised American swing, blending it with Caribbean melodies, Latin rhythms and indigenous elements from the musically rich culture of Ghana (The Gold Coast). Highlife spread like a bushfire across Africa and Beyond. Now, with the cooperationof the Mensah family and estate, RetrofAfric release this collection of 69 tracks which show that highlife has never died and why it lives on, consistently inspiring new generations of musicians and listeners.
