Review by Kentino Zolani

King Sunny Ade And His African Beats' album Ase is a masterpiece that brings together the best of African music. The album is a blend of traditional Yoruba music, highlife, and jazz, with a touch of modern instrumentation. The album features King Sunny Ade's signature guitar playing, which is both melodic and rhythmic.

The album's opening track, "Ase," sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song is a prayer for blessings and success, and it features King Sunny Ade's distinctive vocals and guitar playing. The album's other tracks, such as "Eri Okan" and "Synchro System," showcase the band's ability to fuse African rhythms with Western instrumentation.

The album's production is top-notch, with each instrument clearly audible and balanced. The album's lyrics are in Yoruba, but the music's energy and groove transcend language barriers. The album is a celebration of African culture, and it showcases the beauty and diversity of African music.
