Description
Habibi Funk Records are proud to present Ibrahim Hesnawi release “The Father of Libyan Reggae,” out October 6th 2023. Kingston meets Tripoli in this fiery collection.
Hesnawi crafts restless grooves with evident buttressing from a reggae foundation. Highlighted across the LP is how Hesnawi essentially pioneered such an effortless synthesis between traditional Libyan music and Jamaican reggae stylings, plus the endlessly disparate funk, jazz, and disco accents which firmly situate Hesnawi in a league of his own.
