In this episode of The Working Artist Project, Darrian Douglas and Gregory Agid talk to master percussionist Kofi Hunter about working with folks like Robert Glasper and creating Righteous Rebel Education.
Art can transform lives. As an in-demand multi-percussionist Kofi has been given the opportunity to support some of the biggest names in music, from The Robert Glasper Experiment Saxophonist Casey Benjamin to Hip Hop Superstar GolDLink. Kofi along with his brother established an Afro-diasporic Neo-Folk Percussion and Vocal Group named ‘Akoko Nante Ensemble. ‘ Akoko Nante has performed at BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn Concert Series and has been featured as a musical guest on VICE’s The Untitled Action Bronson Show. Their debut album ‘Nkrabea: Destiny” is available on all streaming platforms.
When he’s not on the bandstand he’s either in a classroom as a teaching artist with his Arts Education initiative, Righteous Rebel Education, or at the helm of his partnership with Brooklyn music venue and non-for-profit National Sawdust, the modern spin on a traditional Kwanzaa Celebration, music festival Kwanzaa Fest BK.
Kofi recently released his debut album NATION TIME via his Righteous Rebel Music label. #Podcast #theworkingartistproject #neworleans #musiceducation #newyork #marketing #branding #business #art
